Do you know that our body has 365 points and 12 major meridians? According to an old Japanese legend, “a man was lucky enough to get an invaluable knowledge from his father.” His father taught him about the Longevity Point of a hundred diseases.
He then followed the instructions of his father and massaged this point every day and lived enough so long that he saw the birth and death of several emperors.
365 points and 12 major meridians indicate numbers of the days and months in a year. All these points can be treated with a therapy, a finger pressure on certain points. According to the Chinese medicine, the human body is considered as an energy system, and massaging its points affects the flow of energy and the function of each organ.
This point of hundred diseases is known as Zu San Li point. It heals and rejuvenates your body, and prevents aging. For Chinese, it is “the point of longevity,” and Japanese call it “the point of a hundred diseases.” Zu San Li point is located below the kneecap. Put your right hand on right knee, left hand on left knee.
The point is located between the ends of your ring finger and the pinky, between the bones. Another way to find this point is that by sitting on the floor, and strongly pressing your feet on the ground. Don’t raise the heels from the floor. Locate its highest point, and press your finger against it and this is your Zu San Li point.
