Location of ST 36

can anyone fill me in on how Toby locates ST 36? I watched him do it a couple of times and forgot to ask. he ends
up further down the shin bone which gives him room to thread the needle in either direction.

When asked about his location of St 36 T says “in the tendon.” Having seen him needle it a bunch of times, his
insertion site looks pretty standard, not distal as you suggest. You can still thread it a good distance when you are
sedating the point. I see him locate St35 and draw a line down. He uses 1.5 inch needles for this point.

Ahh, I see the problem. 5 Element location is more medial
