**Sanyinjiao Acupoint —— Kidney Deficiency Type Freckles**

Sanyinjiao is an acupoint where the three meridians of the spleen, liver, and kidney converge. Among them, the spleen generates qi and blood, and governs blood. The liver stores blood, and the kidney essence generates qi and blood. As long as women have sufficient qi and blood, diseases such as irregular menstruation will disappear. The spots, acne, and wrinkles on a woman's face are actually related to irregular menstruation. As long as you massage Sanyinjiao on both legs for 15 minutes each every night from 9 pm to 11 pm, when the Triple Burner Meridian is in command, you can regulate menstruation, remove spots, acne, and wrinkles. After insisting on massaging every day for a month, you can see results.
