Five inches is measured by the same size method, which is equivalent to the width of seven fingers. The combined width of the four fingers of the index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger is three inches, and the combined width of the three fingers of the other hand is two inches, which is five inches. Seven fingers measured from the navel is the location of Qugu point.
There is another way to find acupoints, that is, pushing down from the navel, you will encounter an arched bone, that is, the pubic bone, and the midpoint of this arched edge is the Qugu point. After finding this acupoint, we can press it with our fingers. A more convenient method of self-pressing and kneading is to put the index finger and middle finger together, and press and knead this acupoint with the pulp of two fingers, which will have obvious sour and numb feeling, and often stimulate Qugu point, which can collect turbid qi, benefit the kidney, dredge the lower energizer, and facilitate water seepage. You can press and rub this acupoint while standing or lying down.
Many of us have a habit in life, that is, if we feel uncomfortable, we should rub it or pound it, and then the bad symptoms will be alleviated. In fact, this is similar to massaging acupoints, because the deep layer of Qugu acupoint is the bladder meridian and bladder urinary system. If you have frequent urination, urgency and nocturia, you can press this acupoint for three to five minutes every day.
