The depth until 15mm accounts for 75% of the total. Face, upper limbs, the head and chest are especially shallow.Meridian points of depth in 45mm to 75mm amounts to 3% as a whole. They are located in the lower abdominal and sacral regions. The deepest acupuncture points of the meridian are in the Conception Vessel Meridian, The Bladder Meridian and The Stomack Meridian.
