Inner Gate — Nèi Guān
This is one of the very important points in acupuncture with various effects. Thus, it acts on the chest and can therefore be used for pain and unpleasant sensations in the chest. However, these should always also be clarified by a doctor.
It has a strong calming effect on the mind and is therefore used in all states of anxiety and restlessness.
It is particularly effective for women suffering from premenstrual depression.
In addition to its effect on the heart and liver, it also acts on the stomach, specifically directing qi downward in the case of "rebellious stomach qi". This is a condition in which the stomach energy does not flow downwards as it would naturally, but rises upwards due to congestion, leading to nausea and vomiting.
