Location acupuncture point EX 23
Location:
At the lower edge of the kneecap, each left and right of it in 2 depressions. I call these the "corners" of the kneecap (patella) although they are not angular, but round.
Knee Eyes
These two acupuncture points can be used optimally for knee complaints to activate the energy flow in this area. The points can be worked with the round end, as shown in the video. It is even more effective to work the points on the skin with the tip of the AkuPen.

These acupuncture points are supportive for many knee problems and have provided valuable help to many of my patients.
Application:

This acupuncture point is pressed with the tip of the AkuPen for 30 to 45 seconds, or simply until the pain stimulus dissipates.
If this feels uncomfortable, you can reduce the pressure or work with the round end of the AkuPen.
