Bloodletting at the Yinbai point is used to treat psychosomatic disorders, chest and abdominal disorders, hemorrhagic disorders, and localized disorders.
The Yinbai point belongs to the foot Taiyin Spleen meridian and is located 0.1 inches behind the toenail root angle on the medial side of the last joint of the big toe of the foot, which has the efficacy of strengthening the spleen and the stomach, opening up the orifices and tranquilizing the mind, regulating menstruation and blood, and moving qi to alleviate pain (relieving pain by regulating the qi in the human body).
Bloodletting, i.e., bloodletting therapy by stabbing the collaterals, removes evil qi through bloodletting to balance yin and yang, harmonize qi and blood, and restore positive qi.
