agree  MariyaN (X): I doubt there will be an English equivalent. Besides, translating "Yang" when it comes to specific Chinese terms in acupuncture simply doesn't seem to be the right choice.

active pond


Explanation:


Chinese translations of acupuncture points. Research suggests these are the usual terms used in English. I doubt we'd have an equivalent anyway.

Example sentence(s):
  • The acupuncture point called the active pond can be found on the back of your left hand near the center of the joint
