Conception (Ren Mai, CV or Con) 6 [Qi Hai] is situated 1.5 cun (two fingers) directly below the umbilicus. It is called the Sea of Energy and, as such, may be tonified (stimulated) to increase general energy depletion in the body. This may be achieved by moxa, needle or pressure techniques. It may be used to treat such conditions and symptoms as chronic tiredness, chronic fatigue syndrome, and weakened immunity. It is also extensively used in treating many abdominal, urological and gynaecological conditions including abdominal distension and pain, bloating and irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, dysmenorrhoea, uterine collapse, frequent urination, sexual dysfunction and impotence.
Con 6 is also considered to be the anterior Sacral Chakra. It is extensively used in yoga and meditation as the focal point in 'hara' breathing. It is linked with the Throat chakra at Con 22 and these two points may be energy balanced with fingers, hands or magnets. By placing the hands on these two points, a terrific sense of well being and relaxation may be achieved not only by the therapist on the client but also as a self help procedure.
