Today, we’re exploring one of the most important channels in Chinese medicine: the Lung Meridian.
With 11 points that treat everything from cough and asthma to sore throat, grief, and even emotional release, knowledge of the Lung meridian is vital for every acupuncture student and practitioner.

Together, we will break down each point’s location, function, and clinical application, plus how the Lung channel connects digestion, immunity, and respiration. Think of this as your go-to Lung meridian review—clear, simple, and packed with clinical gems.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Why the Lung channel is most active between 3–5 am

• Key Lung points—like LU 1 for asthma, LU 5 for cough, LU 7 for immunity, and LU 11 for sore throats and emotional release—and how to use them in clinic
• How the Lung meridian helps address both physical symptoms and psycho-emotional imbalances
