Zhangmen (LR13) is the Front-Mu point of the Spleen, located at the end of the costal cartilage, adjacent to the rib. Jingmen (GB25), located in the waist, can be used to inspect the Dai Mai (Girdle Vessel). Wushu (GB29) is 1.8 cun below the axilla; Daibao (GB26) is 3 cun below Wushu; Weidao (GB27) is below Zhangmen. These acupoints are of immense value. Juliao (GB26 - *Note: Text likely refers to Juliao GB26 or similar lateral hip points given context, but text says "Ju He" which might be a typo for Juliao or a specific local point, translating as Juliao based on standard location relative to lateral ribs/axilla context in some texts, however strictly following text "Ju He" -> Juhe*) and Hexu points are 8.3 cun apart, located in the lateral hypochondrium (Ji Lei area) and below the axilla.
