Scraping for Weight Loss mainly targets the Shanzhong, Zhongwan, and Guanyuan acupoints in the chest and abdomen. The scraping should be done from top to bottom. For the back, focus on the Shenshu acupoint. For the lower legs, target the Sanyinjiao and Fenglong acupoints. The specific locations of these weight loss acupoints are as follows:
(1) When locating the Zhongwan acupoint, the person can lie on their back. The acupoint is located on the upper abdomen, along the midline between the sternum and the navel. The midpoint between the lower end of the sternum and the line connecting it to the navel is the location of this acupoint.
(2) When locating the Guanyuan acupoint, the person can lie on their back. The acupoint is located on the lower abdomen, along the midline between the navel and the pubic bone. Divide this line into five equal parts, and the acupoint is located at three-fifths down from the navel.
(3) When locating the Shanzhong acupoint, the person can sit upright or lie on their back. The acupoint is located in the middle of the chest, at the midpoint between the nipples.
(4) When locating the Sanyinjiao acupoint, the patient should sit upright or lie on their back. The acupoint is located on the inner side of the lower leg, three fingers' width above the inner ankle, in the depression along the inner edge of the shin bone.
(5) When locating the Shenshu acupoint, the patient should lie face down. The acupoint is located on the lower back, two fingers' width down from the spinous process of the second lumbar vertebrae on both sides.
(6) To locate the Fenglong acupoint, bring all five fingers together and press the outer ankle at its highest point with the tip of the little finger (right hand for the right foot, left hand for the left foot). Move along the direction of the knee until the thumb touches the protruding part of the fibula. The position of the tip of the little finger is the location of the Fenglong acupoint. The Fenglong acupoint has the effect of reducing and suppressing hunger. Therefore, by stimulating this acupoint, it can easily achieve the effect of dieting.
