🎯 Location: On the posterior midline of the leg between BL40 and BL60 in the pointed depression the formed below gastrocnemius belly when leg is stretched or heel is lifted.
Corroborated by a second study. BL23, BL25, BL40, BL54, BL57, GB34 also appear in another study-reported protocol for the same search. A second publication is not necessarily a second research group. doi:10.2147/JPR.S438219 ↗
🎯 Location: In the depression the between tip of the external malleolus and achilles tendon.
⚠️ Cautions: Traditionally forbidden in pregnancy – these are the points used to bring on labour at term. Controlled data show no excess of preterm birth or stillbirth (Carr 2015), but in pregnancy needle only on a clear obstetric indication.

🎯 Location: On the midline of the lateral aspect of the thigh, 7 thumb widths above the transverse popliteal crease; when patient is standing erect with hands close to the sides, point is where tip of the middle finger touches.
Corroborated by a second study. BL23, BL24, BL25, BL26, BL40, BL60, GB30, GB31, GV03 also appear in another study-reported protocol for the same search. A second publication is not necessarily a second research group. doi:10.13517/j.cnki.ccm.2025.05.015 ↗
