Gallbladder 28 (GB28) – Pelvic level
Location
GB28 is located at the level of the pelvis, slightly behind the hip joint, in a depression between two muscle groups.
Functions
GB28 can help release tension in the pelvic area and promote mobility. It is also used for lower back problems.
Indicators
Safety
Treatment of this point should only be performed by experienced individuals, as its proximity to sensitive structures requires special caution.
Medical information
GB28 is located on the midline between the tuber coxae and tuber sacrale, approximately at the level of the greater trochanter, in the depression between the tensor fasciae latae and gluteus medius muscles.
GB28 is used to treat pelvic pain, lumbago, and disorders of the hip and lower back. It influences Qi circulation in the gallbladder and bladder meridians.
Due to the proximity to important nerves and vessels, precise localization and careful needling are essential to avoid complications.
