Muyan (T 11.20)

Location

The Master Tung Acupuncture point, T 11.20 Muyan, is a two-point set on the palmar aspect of the ring finger, evenly distributed along the ulnar margin of the middle phalangeal bone (line D). Divide the middle phalanx into thirds, and located these two points at 1/3 and 2/3 the distance between the PIP and DIP joints.

Notes:

For palmar finger points, measure from the palmar digital crease to the proximal interphalangeal crease rather than from MCP to PIP joints.
This finger line system for locating Zone 11 points is adopted from "Advanced Tung Style Acupuncture: Dao Ma" by James Maher.
