The twelve main meridians of the body, plus the Ren and Du meridians among the eight extraordinary meridians, are collectively known as the fourteen meridians. The fourteen meridians are the most critical part of the meridian system, which is the safe passage for the body’s blood and Qi. When detailed, there is no pain; when there is pain, it is blocked.

The Yellow Emperor’s Internal Classic says: ‘Meridians are the source of life and the origin of disease, the treatment of disease, and the occurrence of disease. Therefore, meridians determine whether life exists, whether diseases occur, and whether the treatment of diseases is effective. Meridian blockage is the origin of all diseases, and to recover from illness, it is necessary to start from unblocking the meridians.’

Meridian knocking can unblock meridians, activate blood and Qi, relieve fatigue, relieve muscle spasm and pain, improve physical and mental health, and prevent and treat diseases.

For various bone and joint diseases, one can knock on the affected area. For patients with itching, in addition to knocking on the injury site, they can also tap on the blood sea point, Fengshi, Quji, and other acupoints; for various gynecological diseases (such as fibroids, ovarian cysts, dysmenorrhea, etc.), male diseases (such as prostate diseases, impotence, premature ejaculation, etc.), kidney deficiency, female menopausal syndrome, hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, and liver disease, one can knock along the root of the thigh to the inner side of the thigh, and can also knock on the root of the thigh, then tap on the lower abdomen and waist.
