Acupoints mainly refer to special acupoints on the meridian line of human body. Traditional Chinese medicine treats diseases by stimulating corresponding meridians and acupoints through acupuncture or massage, acupoints and moxibustion.

Every issue of the magazine "Health and Wellbeing of Traditional Chinese Medicine" will introduce the methods and specific operation methods of acupoint health care in detail. I specially made this collection of acupoint health care for everyone to learn.
