Step 3: Divide the line connecting the center of the navel and the midpoint of the upper edge of the pubic symphysis into five equal parts.
Step 4: Draw a horizontal line at the intersection of the lower 1/5 and the upper 4/5 of this line.
Step 5: This line will intersect with the midline of the breast (the vertical line through the nipple).
Step 6: The midpoint between these two intersections is the location of the acupoint.
