Dear Patient, Lao Gong is a very cool acupuncture point on the Pericardium channel, located in the center of your palm. The name means “Palace of Toil,” a nod to the toiling our hands do in daily life, and also to the essential function of the Pericardium in Traditional East Asian Medicine. The Pericardium is the protector of the Heart, the seat of our emotions, whom we call the Monarch.
