The abdomen was considered by the ancients to be the palace of the five viscera and the birthplace of qi, blood, and body fluids. The six fu organs are used for communication. If the six fu organs are unblocked, the five zang organs are safe. If the five zang organs are safe, the qi and blood are sufficient. If the qi and blood are sufficient, the meridians are unblocked. If the meridians are unblocked, the yin and yang are balanced, and if the yin and yang are balanced, all diseases are not caused. Therefore, there is a saying that "the abdomen is soft as cotton, and all diseases are not entangled".
