Schema of the injection sites for BL-10, GB-21, LI-16, SI-14, and BL-38.
<p>The red circles in the figure show the acupuncture point sites as follows: BL-21, outer margin of the suboccipital trapezius muscle; GB-21, midpoint of the transverse process of the seventh cervical vertebra (C7) and the outer margin of the acromion; LI-16, the outer margin of the supraspinatous fossa; SI-14, medial side of the superior angle of the scapula; and BL-38, medial margin midpoint of the scapula.</p
