It is situated approximately two finger-widths to the side of the space between the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae, and it is directly linked to the function of the Large Intestine.This acupoint boasts dual benefits: it regulates intestinal function (improving issues such as constipation and diarrhea) while simultaneously soothing lower back stiffness and pain. The massage technique is simple: use your thumb to apply vertical pressure and knead in a circular motion for 2 to 3 minutes at a time. Perform this in the morning to awaken your intestines, and in the evening to relax your lower back. For enhanced results, I recommend applying a warm compress with a hot towel to the area for 15 minutes before massaging.By complementing this with movements such as the Cat-Cow, Supine Twist, and Knees-to-Chest poses, along with consuming adequate fiber and water and establishing regular lifestyle habits, you can comprehensively improve gut health and alleviate lower back discomfort, ultimately realizing a lifestyle of true wellness.
