Positioning and acupoint selection: refers to the intersection of the extension line of the eyebrow tip and the extension line of the outer corner of the eye. Generally, there will be a concave pit when touching this place.
Indications: dispelling pathogenic wind, relieving exterior syndrome, clearing the head and regulating yin and yang. Temples are the third way for children to massage, regulating the left and right yin and yang.
Mechanism of action: temple, one left and one right, one left and one right means one yin and one yang. How can it have such an effect? The main function of the temple, like Tianmen and Kangong, has a power of communication in it. When its divergence works, you will feel that your head and face are particularly refreshing. When the stasis near your eyes is relieved, your eyes will be brighter, thus playing the role of dispelling wind, relieving exterior symptoms and clearing your head. The function of regulating yin and yang is actually that after rubbing the temples on both sides, the yin and yang on the left and right sides can be integrated and adjusted. Therefore, this acupoint mainly plays an important role in regulating the balance of yin and yang on our left and right sides. Kangong is the coordination between zang-fu organs, Tianmen is about the communication between man and nature, and the sun is mainly about the adjustment of its left and right yin and yang. Because it has the function of dispelling wind and relieving exterior syndrome, it naturally has the function of sweating, and the sweating effect is better when combined with head and face. Therefore, when the symptoms of anhidrosis appear, it is an effective method to use the above acupoints to relieve sweating. When we see that everyone is using these acupoints, but some people use them well, and some people use them badly, mainly depending on whether they sweat or not, and the effect is better when they don't sweat. Because it has the effect of dispelling wind and relieving exterior syndrome, the effect of sweating is more obvious.
Operation method: massage. When using this acupoint, you need to pay more attention to the method of kneading, that is, there is a certain directionality when kneading, and the directionality involves a diarrhea and a tonic. What is tonic and what is diarrhea? Just look at the direction. For example, if we look at a person's profile (figure: the profile of the head meridian), if it is the left acupoint, we will rub it counterclockwise and rub it clockwise. Why is counterclockwise a complement here? According to the reinforcing and reducing principle of traditional Chinese medicine: What meridians should we follow in this place? Du meridian originates in the back and ren meridian originates in the front. According to the movement trend of qi and blood, from back to top, from front to bottom is the tonic method, and vice versa. As for the temple, we should look at it from a big perspective, not from the local meridians, because the temple is a strange point outside the meridians and does not belong to any tube, but from the perspective of the Du meridian and Ren meridian, where the reinforcing and reducing direction comes from.
Clinical application: when to use purgation? Use when exogenous pathogenic factors appear too much and there is no sweat. Tonifying method is used when deficiency syndrome has headache and dizziness. Therefore, when rubbing the temples, it is necessary to see if there are any mistakes in the method of reinforcing and reducing. This is special. Moreover, headache caused by deficiency syndrome usually leads to sweating. Sometimes, when you look at emptiness and reality, how can you tell whether it is emptiness or reality? You can see it without sweating, but it is not absolute, just that it is the case in most cases. Are you sweating when you see some people collapse? A lot of sweat keeps coming out, which has something to do with this.

Explanation: Ancient people were really particular about it. It is generally believed that the sun is on the left and the moon is on the right. What do you mean by distinguishing these two? It uses different methods for babies of different sexes. But now most of them are not very particular. If it is a baby boy, rubbing the sun has a sweating effect, and rubbing the Taiyin has an antiperspirant effect; Female babies are just the opposite.
