The Vessels

The body has two key vessels known as the Conception Vessel and the Governor Vessel. Each plays a crucial role in the flow of energy throughout the body.

Conception Vessel

The Conception Vessel Meridian is located on the front of the body. It begins at the south part of the anus and runs up the center of the front of the body, terminating under the tongue. This vessel is responsible for all Yin energy in the body.

While there is no specific element related to the Conception Vessel, it transmits all element energies in their Yin form. For example, Yin Water or Yin Fire can flow through this vessel.

There are a total of 24 pressure points on the Conception Vessel, many of which are very important and need to be studied. It is crucial to note that if these pressure points are struck, they can cause serious harm to the body, including death. Six of these pressure points are Alarm Points.

Governor Vessel

The Governor Vessel is located on the back of the body. It begins at the north part of the anus and runs up the center of the spine and head, terminating under the palate inside the mouth. This vessel is responsible for all Yang energy in the body.

Similar to the Conception Vessel, there is no specific element related to the Governor Vessel. However, it transmits all element energies in their Yang form. For example, Yang Water or Yang Fire can flow through this vessel.

There are a total of 28 pressure points on the Governor Vessel, which are also highly important to study. Just like with the Conception Vessel, caution is necessary because striking these pressure points can cause serious harm to the body, even leading to death.
