What are your go-to acupuncture points for mental health? 🙏
In TCM it is said that 70% of all chronic illnesses stem from long standing Emotions.
I can sincerely say in my 18 yrs of practice, I would argue that number is even higher!
My favourite go-to points are:
✅ Buddha’s Triangle: HT 7, LU 9 & PC 6 (great for depression with anxiety)
✅ Bl 62 (for those who carry the world on their shoulders)
✅ St 6 (Best for PTSD)
✅ St 40 (my all time favourite point for years of anxiety)
✅ Gb 34 (for low self esteem and self doubt)

☯️ BEST acupuncture points to calm the mind!
⭐️ Yin Tang: the 3rd eye chakra is great for enlightenment and calming the ever chatting mind.
⭐️ Ear Shen Men: a great ear point to bring the body into a parasympathetic state of rest & recover.
⭐️ REN 17 – CV 17 is awesome for chest tightness, palpitations and anxiety.
⭐️ Heart 7: best acupuncture point for insomnia!
⭐️ Spleen 6: crossed 3 meridians (SP, LV & KD) which makes it perfect to calm the mind of those who overthink and are frustrated.
⭐️ Du 20: great to calm the mind for insomnia, especially when tossing & turning all night.
⭐️ Pericardium 6 is a fantastic point for anxiety when it affects the digestive system.
⭐️ Stomach 40 is awesome for eating our feeling resulting in depression.
⭐️ Kidney 1 is the most grounding point for those who feel scattered.

🌈 When we are stressed, our jaw tightens:
⭐️ ST 5: anterior to the masseter border at the mandible angle. Great for jaw pain, toothache & part of a protocol for Bell’s Palsy
⭐️ ST 6: on the highest prominence of the masseter. Same functions as ST 5, plus it’s a Ghost point used for PTSD.
⭐️ ST 7: between the zygomatic arch and the mandible condyloid process. Same as ST 5, plus it’s used for trigeminal neuralgia & ear ringing.
⭐️ LI 4: I would add it because it’s the best acupuncture point to relieve pain. Located between the 1st & 2nd metacarpal on the back of the hand.

The GUT is the 2nd brain!
💎The Digestive Diamond 💎
ST25, REN 9 and REN 6 needled together form the perfect diamond shaped combo for any digestive disorders.
💎 Needling them from REN 6 clockwise is best for deficiency patterns or constipation.
💎 Needling them from REN 9 counterclockwise is best for excess patterns or diarrhea.
