Osteophyte c5/c6

By Archived User | Updated: Feb 21, 2025 | Published: Feb 20, 2025

Hello I was wondering what would the acupressure or acupuncture points be for treating an osteophyte in the cervical area aside from GV14 and also if there are any herbal formulas that can help thank you

Thank you

Bilateral BL11 for bone effects, LI4 as analgesic point, any HJ points that are tender/tight.  Other points will depend on their symptoms/where their pain where ahshi points are. ie BL10, GB21, LI11. Go same side or bilateral if not irritable/seveve or opposite side if pain is severe. If there is an inflammatory pattern to their pain maybe also add bilateral SP6 or SP5. 
Does this help?
