The Mangu point is located at the midpoint of the line connecting the Sanma point and the Hegu point, and is so named because it is located between the Sanma point and the Hegu point.

The midpoint of the line connecting the Sanmai point and the Hegu point is the Mangu point. The Mangu point is effective in treating lung diseases such as pharyngitis and coughing.
