Dr. He Haochen
For individuals with poor gastrointestinal health, Sanfu patches can be applied to acupoints such as Shenque (CV8) and Zusanli (ST36). Applying the patches to these points allows medicinal stimulation and penetration to unblock meridians, regulate qi and blood, strengthen the spleen, and harmonize the stomach, thereby improving gastrointestinal function and relieving gastrointestinal discomfort. However, please note that it is advisable to consult a qualified physician before using Sanfu patches to avoid potential adverse reactions.
