Lougu · 漏谷 · Leaking Valley

Meridian

Spleen and pancreas meridian

Location

On the tibial aspect of the leg, posterior to the medial border of the tibia, 6 B-cun superior to the prominence of the medial malleolus — 3 B-cun superior to Sanyinjiao (SP6).

What it helps with

Gently supports puffiness and heaviness in the lower legs, rumbling and bloating in the abdomen.

How to work on it

Cup the lower leg in the palm and make gentle circular presses with the pad of the thumb for 1-1.5 minutes on each side.

Caution

Do not use during pregnancy: the point lies on the same line of the leg as SP6, which is avoided at that time.
