Juliao (GB 29)

Crossing point with the Yangqiaomai.

Location of Juliao

As I start going down, there is a point at the level of the hip: the Juliao point of the thigh.
Take the line between the middle of the upper border of the greater trochanter and the upper border of the ASIS (anterior superior iliac spine): the point lies halfway along it.

Therapeutic functions of Juliao

• Juliao treats hip disorders and pain along the sciatic nerve radiating down the side of the leg and thigh ;
• It is used in cases of lower limb paralysis when the buttocks are paralyzed and hip abduction (outward movement) is difficult.
