crossing point: Suwen‧Qifu Lun Wang Bing's note: "foot shaoyang, Taiyang (EX-HN5) meeting of the two veins".

[Origin]

"Huan" is round and refers to the buttocks; "Jiao" means jumping; the point is on the buttocks and controls the movements of the lower limbs, hence the name. The point is close to the hip joint, so it is also called Kuangu (EX-LE1), patella, patella, pivot, and pivot joint.

(quoted from "Yan Zhenguo acupoint anatomy")

Huantiao acupoint
(quoted from "Meridians and Acupoints")

Buttocks, the depression above and behind the greater trochanter of the femur. Lying on the side and flexing the femur, it is the outer 1/3 inflection point of the line connecting the protrusion point of the greater trochanter of the femur and the sacral canal hiatus. Or place a point in the center of the triangular area surrounded by the line connecting the posterior superior iliac spine, the ischial tubercle and the protrusion of the greater trochanter of the femur.

• Zhenjiu Jiayi Jing: "In the patellar axis. Lie on your side, stretch your lower foot, and bend your upper foot to get it."
• Shenying Jing >: "That is, the inkstone bone is in Wanwanzhong." The inkstone bone refers to the femur.

[Anatomy]

• Muscles: gluteus maximus, quadratus femoris, lower edge of piriformis.
• Nerve: inferior gluteal cutaneous nerve, inferior gluteal nerve. The deep part is the sciatic nerve; the medial part is the posterior femoral cutaneous nerve.
• Vessel: The inner side is the inferior gluteal artery and vein.

[Manipulation]

Perpendicular insertion 1.5～2.5 inches. moxa cone moxibustion 3 to 5 times, moxa stick warm moxibustion for 10 to 15 minutes.

[Efficacy]

• Modern: sciatica, lower limb paralysis, lateral femoral cutaneous neuralgia, buttock soft tissue disease, lower limb spasm.
