Sun Si Miao, a renowned TCM practitioner from the Tang Dynasty, utilized these 13 Acupoints, also known as 'Ghost points', to address conditions that today would be categorized as severe, manic, psychological disorders, or epilepsy.
Each Sun Si Miao Ghost point bears an alternative Chinese name containing the element 'Ghost'.
According to Deadman et al., some practitioner proposed that Guixin corresponds to Taiyuan LU-9 instead of Daling P-7, while Guilu is believed to be either Jianshi P-5 or Laogong P-8 rather than Shenmai BL-62.
There are also various versions of this list of points. For instance, the practitioner Gao Wu omitted BL-62, Du-23, Ren-1 and LI-11, and included Du-24, ST-17, LIV-2, and GB-34 instead.
