Tremor Trigram Vessel

Pressing acupoints is like cooking. Striking the fatal acupoint is like setting the stove on fire, bringing disaster.

The art of acupoint is much like a chef in the kitchen. First, you explore the meridians, which is like rinsing the ingredients; then, you warm your palms, akin to heating the pan; and with two fingers pressing on the laughter point, the sound of laughter is like stir-frying. Practitioners must never recklessly strike a person's fatal point — it's like pouring hot oil into a stove, causing a disaster.

"This little ball is darting between the acupoints, just like the fish balls I fling when making stir-fried noodles on the hot iron plate." —Pan Yinhu, distracted by random thoughts while doing acupoint memory training with a wooden panda sculpture.
