Acupuncture point



Acupuncture points (also called "acupoints or tsubo") are locations on the body that are the focus of acupuncture, acupressure, sonopuncture, and laser acupuncture treatments. There are several hundred acupuncture points that are distributed along meridians (connected points across the body which effect a specific organ or other part of a person) as well as numerous other "extra points" that are not associated with a particular meridian.
