G.B.-10



Location
Posterior to the ear, at the junction of the upper third with the two lower thirds of the curved line connecting ➞ G.B.-9 and ➞ G.B.-12.
How to find
First, locate ➞ G.B.-9 (1.5 cun superior to the apex of the ear and 0.5 cun in a posterior direction). Then locate ➞ G.B.-12 in a depression posterior and inferior to the mastoid process (➞ 3.1.4). These two points are the endpoints of a curved line that runs approximately parallel to the posterior margin of the ear within the hairline. Divide this line into thirds and locate G.B.-10 at the junction of the upper and the middle third, where often a small ‘dip’ can be felt on the bone. G.B.-10 tends to be on the level of the apex of the ear.
➞ T.B.-20 is located directly above the apex of the ear.
