Taichong (LR3) — bilateral pair

Great surge — foot-web rub

Taichong is the Liver-channel source point on the dorsum of each foot, rubbed along the first-to-second metatarsal interval in practical instruction. A single bilateral marker at the foot midline keeps the map within the requested point budget; it represents two mirrored practice sites, not a midline point.

Lingshu ch. 10 (Jing mai) gives the Liver-channel foot course that frames the bilateral Taichong (LR3) region; the modern alphanumeric point identity and this self-massage sequence are later standardizations.
