#148 - 9 Powerful Distal Acupuncture Points You Need to Know
2026/11/04
💌 Sign up for my FREE weekly newsletter where I share exclusive content I don't share anywhere else. Why can needling a point far away from the area of pain create such powerful results? In this episode, I’m breaking down the channel theory behind distal acupuncture points and sharing 9 of my go-to points for treating everything from pain and digestive issues to gynecology, anxiety, and headaches. I’ll explain why I often start with distal points before moving to local points, and how you can use these versatile points more confidently in your clinical practice. Here’s what you’ll learn: • Why distal acupuncture points can influence the entire meridian and why Qi may be more accessible away from the problem area • How to use ST36, LI4, SP6, and LU7 for digestion, immunity, pain, gynecology, mental health, and head and neck issues • How BL40, BL60, PC6, and ST38 can be powerful tools for lower back pain, headaches, nausea, anxiety, and shoulder pain • Why KI1 is one of my favourite grounding points, and my practical tips for combining distal and local points for better results 🎧 Whether you’re a student learning point functions or a practitioner looking to strengthen your point selection, this episode will help you understand why these 9 distal points are such powerful tools to have in your clinical toolkit. ☯️ More AcuPro Episodes you'll love: Top 15 Acupuncture Points You’ll Actually Use in ClinicTop 15 Acupuncture Points to Calm the MindThe Top 15 Acupuncture Points for Digestive Symptoms  ➡️ Visit the show notes for all the links mentioned in this episode!

Did you know that in Chinese medicine, your tea choice can actually be matched to your individual pattern? 🍵 In this episode, I’m exploring tea through a TCM lens, looking beyond general health claims to the nature, flavour, and function of each tea.

2026/10/14
💌 Sign up for my FREE weekly newsletter where I share exclusive content I don't share anywhere else. What if erectile dysfunction isn’t always about Kidney deficiency? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Jordan Barber to explore erectile dysfunction and male pelvic floor dysfunction through the lens of Chinese medicine, anatomy, and the sinew channels.
