	Allergies and the San Jiao \| acupuncturetoday.com
		The san jiao is unknown outside of TCM.
		San jiao is often translated as "triple heater," "triple burner" or "triple warmer." Unfortunately, these translations shed little light on what the san jiao is or what it does.
		As TCM textbooks explain, the san jiao is comprised of three compartments in the trunk of the body.

		San Jiao has been translated as "triple heater," "triple warmer," and "triple burner," the latter of which is probably favored because of the involvement of the San Jiao in metabolism (burner meaning "metaboliser").
		Energetically speaking, the San Jiao is a yang organ, paired with the pericardium which is the yin organ of the pair.
		The San Jiao is closely associated with the spleen functions of transformation and transportation, particularly the metabolism of incoming food.

		San is a painting, a Xiang (an image or model) of all the "threes" of the world, the triadic relationships.
		The middle jiao is the "entryway of all qi." It represents the entirety of the earth phase which is epitomized by the force or action of transformation.
		The active precipitation of the pure and immaterial energies to the upper jiao is complimented by the active processing and descending of the remaining solids and liquids from the middle jiao to the lower jiao where these materials undergo five purifications.

	San Jiao - Traditional Chinese medicine - Chinese Medicine and Chinese Herb
		In TCM theory, the San Jiao is a yang organ paired with the Pericardium (Zang)pericardium which is the yin organ associated with it.
		The San Jiao is said to be a metabolism mechanism similar to an old-fashioned water wheel that is turned by incoming water and creates energy for accomplishing a task, such as grinding grain in the case of the water wheel, or for metabolising and digestiondigesting food in the case of the San Jiao.
		The San Jiao is closely associated with the Spleen (Zang)spleen functions of transformation and transportation, particularly the metabolism of incoming food.

		Clinically, the terms upper, middle and lower jiao are often applied to generalize the function of the internal organs of the chest and abdominal cavity.

	East Bay Traditional Chinese Medicine
		San Jiao: The San Jiao, or Triple Warmer, is not actually an organ but rather a set of functions related to the three divisions of the torso, known as the three jiaos.
		The upper jiao refers to the area above the diaphragm (Lung and Heart), the middle jiao refers to the area between the diaphragm and the umbilicus (Spleen and Stomach), and the lower jiao refers to the area between the umbilicus and the genitals (Kidney, Liver, Gall Bladder, Intestines, and Urinary Bladder).
		The main physiological functions of the San Jiao are controlling the activities of the body's Qi, by serving as the passageways through which Qi flows, and regulating the transportation of fluids through the body.

		Because all the ideas about the San Jiao show that it is concerned with the metabolism of water; when you talk about 'triple heater' it has an idea of heat, or Yang, which doesn't mean anything.
		And to respond to all of these seven points of the San Jiao, you have the back shu point of the San Jiao, which is Bl-22; so when you want to act on this point you need to use moxibustion.
		This point is the meeting point of the San Jiao; the San Jiao and Gall Bladder meet at this point, and the vessel penetrates deeply into the maxillary area to govern the gums.

	Psychospiritual Aspects of Traditional Chinese Medicine
		The xin zhu is paired with the san jiao, the 'Triple Heater', one of the most difficult concepts in Chinese medicine, not only because it has no equivalent in Western medicine, but also because even in China it has not been clearly and consistently defined.
		The san jiao does not describe a physical organ; indeed, it is the only fu whose character does not include the 'body part' radical.
		The details of digestion and metabolism may be governed by one organ or another, but the whole operation is orchestrated by the san jiao, which is responsible for not only the production of all types of post-natal qi, but also for its free circulation, from the deepest level to the most superficial.

	Baduanjin
		The Chinese character san means three; thus, san jiao refers to the three specialised groupings of the internal organs concerned mainly with the fluid transportation in the living body (including blood and qi movement).
		Thus “to put in order the san jiao” means the exercise will massage all the internal organs and facilitate the movements of the body fluids, the blood and the qi.
		The contraction and expansion of the chest cavity and the muscles of the arms help to facilitate the intake of oxygen and the flow of the body fluids (blood and qi) which in turn quickens the process of regeneration of the body cells and of the muscle fibres.
