Medical information

GB10 is located caudal and slightly ventral to the base of the ear, in the depression between the mastoid process and the attachment of the sternocephalicus muscle.

GB10 is used to treat headaches, neck stiffness, local pain, and to calm agitation. It influences circulation in the head region and can be supportive in cases of neurological symptoms.

Caution is advised when manipulating near sensitive structures such as the auricular cartilage and auricular nerve. Avoid deep needling to prevent injury to vessels or nerves.
