Method of manipulation: Bingpian is dissolved in a hot decoction of other herbs for
steaming and then washing both hands.
4) Hand qigong: Physical and breath exercise for distension of chest and abdomen.
The practitioner takes a pole-standing posture with legs separated at shoulder width
and heels apart. Breath is adjusted and the mind is stilled. Both arms are crossed and
placed on the chest: the slightly flexed legs are still with upper body weight
intentionally applied to the lower limbs. The exercise is continued until the distension
of chest is released. The effect may be even better if the exercise is continued for a
longer time. The attention is concentrated at the navel and the navel qi is transported
upward through a spiral route to the chest, then to both arms and discharged from
Laogong (PC 8) acupoint on both palms. If the distension of chest can be relieved,
attention is concentrated at the back and qi is transported upward to the head and
discharged from Baihui (GV 20) acupoint. This is an effective exercise.
