explain how to locate c7 and T1
- * Run your finger down the neck along the midline·
- * The first palpable vertebral spinous process is C6·
- *Ask the patient to extend their neck, C6 will disappear·
- * The next vertebra down is C7, much more readily palpable, and remains palpable even
- when the neck is extended.·
- *Ask the patient to prop themselves up on their elbows and rotate the neck from side
- to side.·
- *C7 will rotate slightly, but T1 will not move with the rotation of the neck. T1 is
- the most prominent vertebra at the base of the neck.·
- *The vertebra from T1 to T9 are counted downward from C7.
-
explain how to locate the sternocoastal angle (xiphi-sternal juction)
* Also called the xiphi-sternal junction
- *Run the forefinger upward along the lower margin of the ribcage into the
- depression immediately below the solid bony part of the sternum
*This is where the cartilaginous xiphoid process meet the bony sternum.
- *The xiphoid process can vary in size substantially and may either be visible and
- palpable or invisible and impalpable. In older individuals, the xiphoid
- may calcify and it you may confuse the lower level of sternum with the
- lower level of the xiphoid process.

Th conception vessel is also called_______________ and _________________
- Ren
- The Conception Vessel
- “Sea of Yin Channels”
- Extraordinary Vessel
-
The Conception vessel ascends_____________.
Ascends along the midline of the anterior of the body.
-
as one of the 8 extraordinary vessels it is opened by its confluent point which is _________________.
*It is one of the 8 extra ordinary vessels.
*Lu-7 is the confluent (opening) point for Ren
-
How many points are on the conception vessel?
24 points
-
write out the location and the number of the first and last point ->
- First point -> Ren 1location: at the perineum midway between the anus and the scrotum in men and the anus
- and posterior labial commissure in women.

- groove.
-
which point is the lou connecting point of the conception vessel?
Ren15 is the Luo connecting point.
-
what is a "luo connecting" point?
- *Where qi of this channel disperses and spreads down over the abdomen.
- *Luo connecting channels diverge from the primary channel at the luo connecting point.
- *The actions of the luo-connecting points:
- *Treating disorders of their interiorly-exteriorly related channel or zang fu
- *Treating disorders in regions reached by luo connecting channel
- *Treating psycho-emotional disorders
-
what is a mu point and what part of the body are mu points located?
- Mu Points :
- -> Located on chest or abdomen in close proximity to their respective zang or
- fu.
- -> The term “mu” means to gather or collect, where the qi of the zangfu
- gathers and concentrates on the anterior surface of the body. “Mark
