Dear Patient, “That’s my favorite point,” a patient said as I inserted a needle at Large Intestine 11, a point at the crook of the elbow. “Really?” I said. “That makes sense.” Large Intestine 11 is one of the strongest points on the body to clear heat and quell fire. And this patient has a lot of heat—fevers, joint inflammation, dryness, skin flushing. No wonder Large Intestine 11 is her favorite point. It delivers exactly what her body needs.
