A dull ache across your lower back after a full day at your desk, sore every time you stand up or sit down? This is one of the two most-used points in back pain therapy.

Where to find it

Located at waist level, on either side of the spine, level with the 2nd lumbar vertebra — roughly level with your navel if you wrap around to your back.

What it helps with

Helps relieve lower back soreness and supports circulation in the lower back from prolonged sitting or poor posture.

Things to keep in mind

Not suitable if back pain comes with fever, leg numbness, or loss of bladder control — see a doctor first.
