Today, we’re exploring a vital channel in Chinese medicine: the Kidney Meridian.

With 27 points that rule over vitality, aging, fertility, and overall constitutional strength, understanding the Kidney channel is key for every acupuncture student and practitioner.

Together, we’ll review each point’s location, function, and clinical use—plus how this meridian anchors Yin, stores Essence, and supports the body’s deepest reserves of energy. Think of this as your go-to Kidney meridian review—clear, grounded, and packed with clinical pearls.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • Why the Kidney channel is most active between 5–7 pm and how that connects to rest, regeneration, and longevity
  • The Kidney pathway: starting beneath the small toe, flowing up the inner leg and abdomen, and connecting to the Bladder, Liver, Lung, and Heart
  • Key acupuncture points like KD 1 for grounding, KD 3 for vitality, KD 6 for Yin nourishment, and KD 10 for balance of Water element energy
  • How the Kidney meridian influences aging, fertility, bone health, hormonal balance, and emotional resilience

🎧 Whether you’re reviewing for exams or refining your clinical depth, this episode will make the Kidney meridian unforgettable.
