ST-37, as the lower He-Sea point for the LI, is positioned on the Stomach channel, which is anatomically and functionally linked with the LI. This point is vital for regulating lower digestive functions, alleviating conditions such as diarrhea and constipation, and supporting overall digestive health. Additionally, it is used to harmonize the stomach and promote the circulation of Qi and fluids, thus influencing the LI’s function more positively.

The other points listed have their specific associations—ST-39, while it is also on the Stomach channel, serves as the lower He-Sea point for the Small Intestine (SI), and BL-39 is associated with the San Jiao (Triple Warmer) channel, which does not pertain to the LI. LU-7 is a point on the Lung channel and is unrelated to the functions of the LI. Therefore, the unique relationship between ST-
