Wei Qi provides an “immune system-like” barrier that protects the body from harmful pathogenic factors that can cause illness and disease.<\/p>\n

When we are exposed to bad air, germs, and viruses, our first line of defense, according to Chinese medicine is our Wei Qi barrier.<\/p>\n

Over time, Wei Qi can become weakened and unbalanced due to many factors: improper diet, emotional stress, grief, sadness, inherited constitution, smoking, pollution, and more.<\/p>\n

When our Wei Qi is down, we become prone to symptoms and illnesses such as allergies, asthma, colds, and even skin problems.<\/p>\n

Your health and the strength of your immune system depend upon the quality, quantity, and balance of Wei Qi that flows within your\u00a0meridian channels.<\/a><\/p>\n

Points Towards Health<\/h3>\n

Here are two common acupuncture points to support your health. These points are located on both feet.<\/p>\n

Kidney 6<\/strong>\u00a0– This point is directly below the inside anklebone. It is useful for sore throat, calming the mind, insomnia, frequent urination, irregular menstruation, cramps of feet and hands.<\/p>\n

Kidney 7 –\u00a0<\/strong>This point is located about two inches above the inside ankle bone and on the border of the Achilles tendon. This is a useful point for edema, night sweating, diarrhea, dry mouth, low back pain.<\/p>\n

Rubbing acupuncture points with your finger for 30 – 60 seconds can stimulate and promote the circulation of Qi within your own body.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
