Chinese Acu-moxa Point Chart, 1869

Acu-moxa point chart, showing the wart (zhuiyou) point, from Chuanwu lingji lu (Record of Sovereign Teachings), by Zhang Youheng, a treatise on acu-moxa in two volumes. This work survives only in a manuscript draft, completed in 1869 (8th year of the Tongzhi reign period of the Qing dynasty). To locate the wart point, one makes a fist. The point is at the end of the knuckle of the middle finger on both hands, and is thus popularly known as quanjian - end of the fist. Moxibustion at this point can cure warts; all kinds of moles; lichen planus (zidianfeng) and vitiligo (baidianfeng) etc.
