On the back, 1.5 cun lateral to the lower border of the spinous process of the ninth thoracic vertebra (T9).

BL18, or G?nsh?, is commonly used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to support liver function, alleviate stress, and improve vision. It is also effective in treating conditions such as jaundice, eye disorders, and emotional imbalances related to liver qi stagnation.

The Liver Shu Point, known as BL18, is a vital acupuncture point located on the back, corresponding to the liver's energetic pathways. This point plays a crucial role in regulating the liver's functions, including detoxification, metabolism, and the storage of blood, which are essential for maintaining overall physical health and emotional stability. The liver's interaction with the spleen and kidneys is pivotal, as it supports the production of Qi and blood, influencing digestion and energy levels. By facilitating the smooth flow of Qi, BL18 helps alleviate emotional disturbances like anger and frustration, fostering resilience and mental clarity. Additionally, the liver is associated with the Wood element in Traditional Chinese Medicine, symbolizing growth and flexibility. Engaging with BL18 can enhance vitality, support emotional well-being, and fortify the body's defenses against stress, ultimately contributing to a balanced and harmonious state of being. Regular stimulation of this point encourages a holistic approach to health, integrating physical, emotional, and energetic well-being for optimal resilience and vitality.
