Zen Shiatsu and the 5 Element points...Help!

 

Hello Everyone.

I have been learning Zen Shiatsu for the last several months and while researching the 5 Elements I came across 5 Element acupoints for each meridian.

I am stumped on somehting. Why/how do the points for half of the meridians go against the normal chi flow for that meridian? I will use the Lung Meridian as an example...Wood Jing-Well is LU11, Fire Ying-Spring is LU10, Earth Shu-Stream is LU9, Metal Jing-River is LU8, Water He-Sea is LU5.

Stay healthy and happy

What are Wan Points???

CV 10, 12 and 13, I think.

 

Kiko Masumaoto used these on me for RSD syndrome Plus GB 22 and 23 and Stomach Chi points.

 

Thank you, anyone

Someone knows this points?

Thanks

Ion Cords

If I wanted to open the yin wei meridian, I would needle pc6, the rest of the points I intend to use then close with sp4. To open the chong, the same thing but reversed. I have some ion cords, using the example of the yin wei, would I put the black clip on pc 6 or the red? Thanks a lot.
