Pain running along the whole spine rather than one spot, the longer you sit the stiffer your whole back feels? This is not one point but a whole group along the spine.

Where to find it

Located along both sides of the spine, about 1-1.5 cun (a Traditional Medicine measurement unit) from the midline, running from the neck down to the lower back.

What it helps with

Helps ease muscle tightness alongside the spine, typically worked section by section depending on where the pain is (neck, upper back, lower back).

Things to keep in mind

Because it runs the length of the spine, a trained therapist should identify the right section — not something to self-administer.

This information is educational and does not replace a medical diagnosis. For a proper treatment plan, book a session with a certified Traditional Medicine therapist.
