LU6 (Kongzui, “Kongzui”) is the Xi-Cleft point point of the Lung Channel of Hand Taiyin Meridian. It is located on the palmar aspect of the forearm, on the line connecting LU5 (Chize) and LU9 (Taiyuan), 7 cun proximal to the transverse crease of the wrist. It clears heat from the Lung, descends and regulates Lung qi, stops bleeding, moistens the Lung, opens the orifices, and alleviates pain along the channel.
