HE-2



Location
3 cun proximal to the cubital crease, on the medial border of the biceps brachii muscle.
How to find
With the elbow flexed, measure 3 cun from the ulnar end of the cubital crease (➞HE-3) towards the axilla. HE-2 is located in a groove on the medial border of the biceps brachii muscle. Ask the patient to flex this muscle for easier location.
Needling
Vertically or obliquely 0.5–1 cun. Caution: Brachial artery! According to classic texts, needling is contraindicated, only moxibustion is permitted.
