Can't thank you enough for this video.. my husband just had a radical prostatectomy surgery, and post recovery has come with aches n pains.. his sciatica nerve seemed to be troubling him, with pain radiating all the way down from hip to ankle.. I looked for an appropriate relevant pressure point for this pain (as a layman) and came across your video, after going thru some others.. your explanation is so precise... I just winged it by giving him a 5 min pressure on this point, and his pain is completely gone, after suffering for three days, he can't believe it ..
God bless you, Sir
What a lovely comment to receive, Chanda! Wishing your husband a very speedy recovery - so pleased to hear this point is providing some much needed relief. All the very best and thanks so much for reaching out.
I would like to see you teach a method for counting vertebrae in order to find the points
I am working on a palpation course and this will definitely be part of it! Thanks for the suggestion, Dawn!
That would be so helpful for locating back shu points, esp on heavy patients @@acupuncturemasterclass
Oh that would be great. I'm trying to find DU4 on my spine, but hard to see what I'm doing.
Love love love this video. Feeling 2 months of pain, when bending & straightening leg, after months of routine repetitive injury on poorly adjusted recumbent bike seat. I've learned my lesson. Pain is good & must be acknowledge & dealt with. Self-care. Thanks for the informative video. Massaging this area works wonders!!
Glad you're getting some relief from working on this point! In TCM, GB34 is an "Influential Point" for all problems related to tendons and sinews so it's an ideal acupuncture point for any tight tendon problem. Thanks again for watching!
As a new student, I LOVE these videos! Stomach 36 Please!
If you haven't graduated yet...I finally have a ST36 video completed! 😆 I hope things are going well with your Acupuncture education!
I always always loved the classes who you were the TA, at CCNM. Looking forward to seeing you again.
That’s so kind of you to say, Shabnam! Be sure to say hello to me the next time you see me on campus. Have a great Summer!
Very interesting, I didn't know of this "posterior" GB 34. Thank you very much!
This is great. I think kidney 10 and LV 8 would also be good points to cover.
Yes please to those 2
You two took the words right out of my mouth. LV 8 and KD 10.
Btw I've also seen 2 variations of SI 7 on both sides of the ulna, dorsal and ventral.
Funny thing, in my experience SI 7 usually feels sore more often on the ulna ventral side more proximal to the HT meridian.
Very useful.Thank you very much!
Lots of practical information indeed for beginners. Thank you so much for the fantastic explanation
Thank you for this video. I hope to more videos on point location.
Great info thanks.
One of my fav points
Thank You Sir...
I appreciate the effort in this video instruction. I find the exact same location if the leg is bent 45° by locating the depression anterior and inferior to the head of the fibula.
Oh I wish I had your channel 10 years ago!
That's very sweet of you to say! Thanks for watching (even though you don't really need me) 😀
@@acupuncturemasterclass actually, it made me sad. I failed out of acu school. I aced Dx, everything, but could not remember where the points were no matter what I did. It was crushing at the time and still saddens me. So know that you ate doing a real service. Someone will pass their points location classes because of you. Your videos are that good.
@@LMaGillicutty99 I'm sorry to hear about your acupuncture education experience. I often work with students who struggle at the institution I work at - I really enjoy seeing those "lightbulb" moments when difficult concepts become more clear for these people. I wish I could have helped out with you when you were in school! Hoping your life is still full despite your experience. I'll keep putting out content just in case you change your mind!
Thank you
Nice sir ❤
I’m loving your content, thank you 🙏🏻
Regards from Brazil
Thanks so much for watching, Amarilis! Hoping to get more out there soon! All the best.
👍👍👍 Thank you for sharing. I suspect that the location of many acupuncture points are not in an exact 'Western' anatomical position. For example, "anterior and inferior to fibular head". Will try pressing your suggested locations.
Love love love
Thanks
Thank you for very helpful guidance and input on the alternative GB34! As for a suggestion on a tricky to locate but important acupuncture point : Stomach 8 :)
Pls make vedio on Lu5, st36.
Love your videos thanks for your work. Would it be possible to add actually needling the point? I realize based on point prescription some points have a variety of methods but it may be helpful to see the general needling. Just a thought, thanks.
Whoa! Sorry for the late reply! A course is being developed which will include needling methods. Be sure to stay tuned!
Love your videos can we see GB20 /21 AND TW 15 -Thank you soooo much :)))
Please do video on CV1
Can you tell me what the best points are for leg pain? Especially upper back of legs with major weakness. 😩 Would be so much appreciated. I'm new to this & very greatful for your channel.
And this video is so helpful..thank u.

Pls make a vedio on tongue diagnosis.
Hi! I’ve heard about a point to release muscular tension in die backside of the legs. And another point to get more mobility in the ankles. I would really appreciate it, if u could show us these two points in a video.
Thank you!
Greetings from Germany 🙋🏻♂️
Daniel, thanks for your reply! There are many points available which describe what you are referring to. I don't think there is just "one" point for the problems you listed. However, points such as Urinary Bladder36, UB37 and UB57 may be beneficial. You also may be interested in trigger point therapy or dry needling techniques. These techniques are quite helpful at reducing tension in muscles to enhance more range of motion. Thanks again for watching!
Can you send video of kid10. Liv8 Sp 9 sp10
Hello, useful practical advice, since mistakes are also made with the DU 20 (GV-20), I think it would be very useful to make a video, regards, Jovan
Thanks for the suggestion, Jovan! I am working on a new course and the very detailed description of locating GV20 correctly is in it. Perhaps I will release small bits of the course when it is complete - be sure to stay tuned to find out! Thanks again for watching!
Nice explanation.... Please show this point in hands too...it is easy to locate in hands...Thanks.
Thanks for watching, Dineshchandra! I only do TCM acupuncture so I’m not familiar with GB34 in the hand. I assume you are referring to Tung style acupuncture. I’m sure there must be videos explaining this point as it is a fairly common style of acupuncture. All the best!
Hello,
Can you do a video on points for heavy menstrual bleeding and fertility?
Much appreciated!
also key points for pcos
Thank u for helpful videos. Can acupuncture solve gallstones?!! Which point should we focus in?
Thanks for the question, Amal. Traditionally, acupuncture has been considered a treatment for gallstones. Today, however, it is best to consult you medical doctor - especially if you are experiencing a gall stone attack. Traditional points to consider would be Gall Bladder 34 and the "extra" point, Dan Nang Xue (a tender location just below GB34). Needling these points on the right side of the body is often recommended but needling bilaterally is fine. I hope this was interesting for you! Thanks again for watching.
@@acupuncturemasterclass Many thanks, your answer is very helpful.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Gb14 and L1
I can't find consistent info on LU7. Would love clarification!
I just uploaded a video on LUNG-7, Stephanie! Better late than never! Hope you are well.
Kd 2 sir.. 🙏🏼
Hallo sir . I’m AJ , restorative therapist. With football club. I need to learn acupuncture with you !
I want to see liver14 and Sp21 pleas
Oh yes! Two difficult points for sure! Palpating the intercostal space is tough. I will be going through this in my Anatomical Palpation for Acupuncturists online course - be sure to stay tuned for that!
St 9 please!
Varicocele treatment points
Sir a video for location of GB21 pls
Apologies for the late reply! I have an early video about GB21 (Look for the pneumothorax video I did a couple of years ago). It was an early video of mine so be kind! ;-)
What's the difference in position of GB34 and St36?
You will have to watch my most recent video on ST36 - I assume you watched this GB34 video - and then compare the two. Basically, GB34 is one cun superior to ST36 and more lateral. Thanks for watching!
As a female, I still don’t know how to find this point on myself.. I can’t really see the back of my leg 🤔
as a male you could find it?
Hi my wife is suffering from recurrent white discharge and butning and vaginal infections.pls put video for genital and cervix vaginal points
Cantharis 30c t.i.d. (3 times per day) for three days, and kali mur 6x t.i.d. until symptoms are relieved, has worked before.
Well
ST35 point location
upload videos regular please
Liver 8 please !!!!!
Sr u cant upload any video last 10 month please give us little bit time
Stomach 36 and 34
Get on with it.
So it's North West of ST 36!?... Nearly touching?
🌸
GB34 is about 1 cun superior to ST36 and certainly lateral. Not quite touching but fairly close to each other, yes. It is helpful to know that GB34 and SP9 are at the same level horizontally. Think about that the next time you do GB34 and SP9 together in a treatment protocol. Hope this helps!
@@acupuncturemasterclass Absolutely ✨🙏✨. Your method is very helpful indeed and appreciated.
Your videos are not just helping the future of acupuncrure, but people who will be receiving it. ✨ 🌟✨
@@sii6531 That is so lovely to hear!! Thanks so much for the very positive feedback. Definitely trying to find the time to post more - be sure to stay tuned for future videos!
It seems though, that GB 34 is in the same area as ST 36!!
They are pretty close! But, GB 34 is definitely about 1 cun higher and lateral to ST36. Check out my ST36 video to help clarify for sure! Thanks for the comment!
@@acupuncturemasterclass Thanks!
No, it wasn't helpful.
Thanks
Thanks for the kind words, Nicolette! I did put out a LU7 video recently. A KD6 video is coming soon and I will put PC6 on the list! I really appreciate the feedback and suggestions. All the best!
