What are the acupuncture points around the navel?

The acupoints around the navel mainly include Xiawan (CV10), Zhongwan (CV12), Qihai (CV6), and Guanyuan (CV4), which can be appropriately massaged.

1. Xiawan (CV10) is located in the upper abdomen, 2 cun above the navel. It can regulate qi and harmonize the stomach, promote digestion, and alleviate symptoms of abdominal distension and abdominal pain caused by dyspepsia.

2. Zhongwan (CV12) is located on the median line of the abdomen, 4 cun above the navel. It can strengthen the spleen and harmonize the stomach, improving appetite loss and abdominal bloating caused by spleen-stomach disharmony.

3. Qihai (CV6) is mainly located in the lower abdomen, 1.5 cun below the navel. It can tonify qi and strengthen the spleen, regulate the lower jiao, and alleviate digestive discomfort.

4. Guanyuan (CV4) is located in the lower abdomen, 3 cun below the center of the navel. It can tonify vital energy and promote urination, improving symptoms of frequent and urgent urination and difficult urination.

In addition, there are also acupoints such as Huangshu (KI16) and Tianshu (ST25). When massaging, strict control over force is required to avoid overexertion, and acupuncture can also be appropriately applied. If obvious discomfort occurs, inform the doctor promptly to avoid delaying the best treatment timing and causing unnecessary damage to the body.
