Location: Make a loose fist. The point is located in the middle of the longest crease on the outside edge of the little finger, just below the knuckle.

Technique: Support the fist with the fingers of the opposite hand and press into the point lightly with the edge of the nail of the thumb or forefinger. For general toning, press for 30 seconds to 1 minute but, should you be suffering from acute neck, shoulder or spinal pain, continue for 2–3 minutes and repeat every half-hour until the pain starts to ease off. Repeat on the opposite hand.

Benefits: This acupoint has a powerful connection with the back. It helps to strengthen the spine and neck and also clears the head. It can be used to prevent and ease headaches and to relieve tension or pain in the neck, shoulders and back.
