Acupuncture for meralgia paresthetica often uses Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) points such as GB30, GB31, GB32, GB34, and BL25, along with specific "ah shi" points in the buttock and thigh, and points along the Gall Bladder meridian. Another common point is Huatuojiaji points, located laterally to the lumbar spine. Studies also highlight the importance of the GB31 point as a consistently tender point in patients with meralgia paresthetica. Treatment Approach Acupuncture Therapy : This technique, which uses a gentle electrical current, is often employed to enhance treatment effectiveness. Heat Therapy: An infrared lamp may be used to heat the local area during or after treatment. Needle Depth: Acupuncture needles can be inserted deeply (25 to 75 mm) to reach trigger points.
