Body Atlas
Explore acupressure points by body region. Click any part of the body to discover pressure points, their locations, and how to use them.
How to use this atlas: the map shows the body divided into twelve regions. Hover over a region to see its name, then click or tap it to open the full guide for that area. Use the search box below to look up a point by name, by abbreviation such as LI4 or ST36, or by a symptom like headache or anxiety. If you are new to acupressure, points on the hands and feet are the easiest to reach, and LI4 (Hegu), PC6 (Neiguan), and ST36 (Zusanli) make a solid starting set.

Tips for Using the Atlas
- Click any highlighted region on the map to open its guide. Keyboard users can tab to a region and press Enter or Space to activate it.
- The back is drawn with a dashed outline because the key back points sit along the Bladder meridian, which runs down the spine.
- The search box starts filtering after two characters and matches point names, abbreviations, and symptom words.
- When you press a point, aim for a deep, dull ache (deqi) rather than sharp pain, and hold for 30 seconds to 3 minutes with steady breathing.
