Talking about the price of pediatric tui na, we must not fail to mention the five meridian points, especially in internal medicine tui na can be said to use five meridian points for every disease. Thumb spleen, index finger liver, middle finger liver, nameless lung, small finger kidney, this is the consensus, there is no doubt about it. The Shanghai Hai School and Hunan Liu Kaiyun School of Pediatric Tuina and most of the ancient books on pediatric tuina say “pushing in the direction of the finger root is tonic, pushing straight up is clear”, while the three schools of pediatric tuina in Shandong and some ancient books on pediatric tuina say “pushing up is tonic, pushing down is diarrhea”. For northerners, I think it is more applicable to “push up as tonic, push down as diarrhea”; in addition, I have more contact with children within 1 year old, so I deeply feel that it is difficult to “push” the finger in clinical practice; combined with my experience, therefore my clinical five meridian points are generally In addition, I have more contact with children within 1 year of age, and I deeply feel that it is difficult to practice “pushing” the finger in clinical practice. I also think that, although the technique is different, but the heart of treatment is the same, so when pushing should be concentrated and quiet, to drive away the evil should think of the evil gas with the pushing of the silk diarrhea away, to support the positive should think of the positive gas into the body to transport, with the intention to guide the gas.
