横伏象是分布在桡骨茎突、大多角骨、手舟状骨之上、第1-5掌骨之间、第2和第5指骨之上的反应功能区域。因人体缩形系统是从手桡侧向尺侧依次为头至躯干横伏在手背上，故称为“横伏象”。左手为同侧横伏的左半身驱体，右手为同侧横伏的右半身躯体。

1. 头颈部:头部，分布于桡骨茎突之上；颈部，分布于手舟状骨与大多角骨之上；额部，位于第1掌骨、第2掌骨和大多角骨交点上；鼻点，位于第1、2指指蹼赤白肉际处；第1、2掌骨之间，鼻点至额点为面部；面部中点为眼点，耳点，位于第2掌骨小头后方桡侧缘(图1)。

2. 背部:位于第2、3掌指关节前缘，食指与中指指蹼缘稍后赤白肉际处(图1)。

3. 腰部:位于第3、4掌指关节前缘，中指与无名指指蹼缘稍后赤白肉际处(图1)。

4. 骶髂部:位于第4、5掌指关节前缘，无名指与小指指蹼缘稍后赤白肉际处(图1)。

5. 上肢:食指背侧面，第1指节为上臂，第2指节为前臂，第3指节为手。食指的屈伸面与同侧的上肢届伸面相融合。不难看出，手三阳经在食指伸侧面的分布。从手食指桡侧向尺侧依次排列为:手阳明大肠经、手少阳三焦经、手太阳小肠经(图1)。

6.下肢:小指背侧面，第1指节为大腿，第2指节为小腿，第3指节为足。小指的届伸面与同侧面的下肢相重合。所以，足三阳经在手小指伸侧面的分布，从桡侧向尺侧依次排列为足阳明胃经、足少阳胆经、足太阳膀胱经(图1)。

7. 其他:上、中、下部，分别位于第2、3、4、5掌骨之间，指蹼赤白肉际至腕掌关节之“中点”。与面部“眼点”共4穴为一组。此组穴有很好的醒脑开窍和明目清神作用(图1)。

It is located on the functional area of styloid process of the radius, trapezoid, scaphoid, between the first to fifth metacarpals,and the second and fifth finger. Because the system of miniaturization, from head to trunk, is spread transversely from the radial side to the ulnar side, it is named the transverse projection of the body. The left hand represents the left half of the body. The right hand represents the right half of the body. 

1. Head/Neck: the head is at the styloid process of the radius; the neck is at the scaphoid and the trapezoid; the forehead is located at the junction of the first, second metacarpal and the trapezoid. The nose is located at the web of first and second finger, at the junction of the red and white skin. The face is located between the first and second metacarpals, from the nose point to forehead point. In the middle of the face region is the eye. The ear point is located distal to the second metacarpal-interphalangeal joint  (Fig.1).

2. Back: between the second and third metacarpo-phalangeal joint, at the web, junction of the red and white skin  (Fig.1).

3. Lumbar: between the third and fourth metacarpo-phalangeal joint, at the web, junction of the red and white skin (Fig.1).

4. Hip: between the fourth and fifth metacarpo-phalangeal joint, at the web, junction of the red and white skin  (Fig.1).

5. Upper limb: on the dorsal aspect of the second finger. The proximal phalanx represents the upper arm,the middle phalanx is the forearm and the distal phalanx is the hand. The three yang meridians of the hand on the second finger from radial to ulnar are: the large intestine of the hand yangming, the sanjiao meridian of the hand shaoyang, and the small intestine of the band taiyang (Fig.1).

6. Lower limb: on the dorsal aspect of the fifth finger. The proximal phalange represents the thigh, the middle phalange represents the lower leg. The proximal phalange represents the thigh, the middle phalange represents the lower leg and the distal phalange represents the foot. The three yang meridians of on the fifth finger are arranged from radial to ulnar aspect: the stomach meridian of the foot yangming, the gall bladder meridian of the foot shaoyang, the bladder meridian of the foot taiyang  (Fig.1).

7. Other: the top, middle and bottom parts are located respectively between the second, third, fourth and fifth metacarpals, the junction of the red and white skin between the webs of the fingers. These three points and the eye point in the middle of the face form a group of four points that is quite effective for awakening the mind, and lifting the spirits (Fig.1).
