Which points are indicated for pain in the hip joints?

The selection of BL-54, GB-29, and SP-12 is particularly suitable for addressing pain in the hip joints due to their specific anatomical and energetic connections to the hip area.

BL-54 is located on the lower back, near the gluteal region, and serves as a key point for treating hip pain and lower back issues. Its proximity and connection to the bladder channel make it effective in alleviating discomfort associated with the hip joints.

GB-29, situated at the lateral aspect of the hip, is directly involved in managing issues that arise in the hip area. It acts as a local point that can help reduce pain and improve mobility in the hip joint.

SP-12, located in the groin region, is significant for its influence on the lower body and its connection to the spleen channel. It can assist in conditions related to hip pain, especially when the pain is tied to dysfunction in the lower extremities and surrounding structures.

By combining these three points, the treatment targets both the local area of the hip as well as the broader systemic factors that may contribute to hip pain, making this selection highly effective for this particular condition.
