Location acupuncture point Ex R1
Location:
The area you are looking for is in the lower back, to the left and right of the spine. When the two tennis balls touch, a cavity is created between them, which is located exactly above the spine when the balls are placed correctly.
The pressure points then arise automatically next to the spine in the muscles of the back extensor (M. errector spinae).
