Yinqiao Meridian

The Yinqiao Meridian starts from the posterior aspect of the navicular bone ( Zhaohai, K 6 ) ( 1 ) . Ascending to the upper portion of the medial malleolus ( 2 ) , it runs straight upward along the posterior border of the medial aspect of the thigh ( 3 ) to the external genitalia ( 4 ) . Then it goes upward along the chest ( 5 ) to the supraclavicular fossa ( 6 ) and runs further upward lateral to the Adam ' s apple in front of Renying ( S 9 ) ( 7 ) and then along the zygoma ( 8 ) . From there, it reaches the inner canthus ( Jingming, B 1 ) and communicates with the Yangqiao Meridian ( 9 ) . The coalescent points of the Yinqiao Meridian are Zhaohai ( K 6 ) , and Jiaoxin ( K 8 ) .
