The acupuncture point "LI 14" , 臂臑, is represented by "Bi Nao" in pinyin and "Upper Arm" in english and may be found:
On the radial side of the upper arm, 7 cun above LI 11 at the insertion of the deltoid muscle.
Of many possible clinical applications, it may be considered to influence the following issues/symptoms:
- Local point for pain in the shoulder and upper arm.
- Weakness in the upper arms
- Benefits the eyes - redness, swelling, pain.
- Scrofula
LI 14 may potentially be used, in coordination with a well designed acupuncture treatment protocol, to influence the following conditions: Arm Pain, Eye Problems, Parkinson's Disease (PD) and/or Shoulder Pain
While not necessarily valid clinically, HT 2 (Local point - in many classics needling this poin…), LU 3 (Window of the Sky Point, regulates head/body Qi f…) and TH 13 (Local Point ) are nearby.
