qui gouvernent le réchauffeur

French to English Medical acupuncture
Or cette notion d’organes qui gouvernent le réchauffeur n’est pas indiquée ici, c’est dommage ; et le foie est complètement oublié dans ces paragraphes.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

French term (edited): qui gouvernent le r�chauffeur
Selected

heat-pumping organs OR heat-regulating

Please note: the rechauffeur is the heating of the skin through moxabustion in my opinion.....see below for the general idea of organs as heat controllers. The organs give off heat BUT rechauffeur may be referring to the a method of getting them to do so: moxabustion. I think here they are probably referring to the fact that the heat is transmitted through these organs to the meridians.

The meridian system reaches every cell in the body and can be likened to a ***central heating system*** in which the heart is the pump, the different organs of the body its radiators and the meridians themselves the pipes along which the heart pumps energy to all the organs and every other part of the body. The action of the needle adjusts the flow of energy through the pathways, stimulating and balancing the patient’s own energy and restoring health.

French term (edited): qui gouvernent le r�chauffeur

which govern the triple heater (or three heater - but I've not heard of this)

I am not an acupuncturist, but I have a book on Chinese Medicine (Between Heaven and Earth, A Guide to Chinese Medicine by Harriet Beinfield, L.Ac. and Efrem Korngold, L.Ac. OMD) where it describes some of the principles:
Although there are five organ networks and ten viscera, there are twelve channels. Two functional entities called the Pericardium and Triple Burner have no corresponding visceral structures yet have acupuncture channels associated with them. The Triple Burner is viewed as an integrating function that ties together and harmonises the physiological processes of the primary Organ Networks. It regulates the metabolism and distribution of body fluids, other than blood. The Triple Burner is represented by the three cavities of the body: the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. The Pericardium, or Heart Protector, is viewed ad the active mechanism of the Hear, whereas the Heart itself is accorded the role of harboring the spirit and maintaining conscious awareness.
In the historical development of Chinese medical theory, the existence of other organs such as the brain and uterus were defined as 'strange organs' outside the Five-Phase or Yin-Yang theory. These 'strange organs', such as the uterus, brain, Pericardium , and Triple Burner can be subsumed within the Phases of Fire and Water respectively. Although they are anatomically distinct structures, the brain and the uterus are not understood as functionally separate from the Organ Networks of the Kidney, Heart, Liver and Spleen, and neither do they have their own distinct channels.

Also, describing the pulse relating to the Triple Burner, in the wrist, it shows how it relates to nearly all the organs in three different places:
These positions correspond to metabolic Zones known as the Triple Burner. The position closest to the thumb corresponds to the chest and upper body (Heart and Lung). The middle position corresponds to the upper abdomen (the Stomach, Spleen, Gallbladder and Liver). The position farthest from the wrist corresponds to the lower abdomen ( the Kidney, Bladder, Small Intestine and Large Intestine).

But if there is another expression for Triple Burner, what Jane says above is more likely to be correct.
