Massage Tanzhong can dredge the chest meridians and improve local blood circulation, thus creating good conditions for the production and discharge of milk. 2. Rugen acupoint is located at the root of breast. Massage this acupoint can dredge mammary duct and promote milk secretion. Appropriate stimulation of Rugen acupoint can enhance the function of mammary gland and increase the amount of milk. 3. Shaoze acupoint is located on the ulnar side of the last finger, 0.1 inch away from the nail angle. Stimulation of Shaoze acupoint can promote lactation and resuscitation, which is helpful for postpartum milk secretion deficiency.
