English term

acupuncture point bladder 67

English to Arabic Medical Medical: Health Care Moxa Therapy
Hello again,
Any good idea on how to translate this? It's again the text on Moxa Therapy, and here's the full sentence:

The piece of skin of the small toe and therefore *the acupuncture point bladder 67*, will be warmed up this way.

Many thanks in advance,
Fady.

Many Thanks Fathy! Based on your addendum, I would like to suggest this translation formula, and hope you and the other collegues tell would tell me what do you think of it.
As I said before, the text is about Moxa Therapy (not acupuncture itself), but the text refers to the acupuncture point as the one that should be heated by the burning moxa stick, so here's my intent to translate it:
نقطة الوخز بالإبر رقم 67 المُعتمدة لعلاج المثانة
Many thanks again to you and to everybody.

Bladder Channel Hi Fadi,
With more research I could conclude that "acupuncture point bladder 67" isn't for a bladder treatment. Bladder is just an indication to the acupuncture position, and this point is really used for treating other symptoms like toothache, headache, fetus postion and so on . Urinary channel contains 67 points in this channel, every point has its own postion and indications. for more information about about point 67, please refer to this link http://www.lsm-inc.com/ebook/ub.htm and study the features of the last point "UB 67"

(Point, U.B. 67)
1. Location: On the lateral side of the small toe, about 0.1 cun posterior to the corner of the nail (see Diagram)
2. Indications: Headache, nasal obstruction, epistaxis, ophthalmalgia, feverish sensation in sole and difficult labor.
3. Method: Puncture perpendicularly 0.1 inch. Moxibustion is applicable.
4. Regional anatomy
1. Vasculature: The network formed by the dorsal digital artery and plantar digital proprial artery.
2. Innervation: The plantar digital proprial nerve and the lateral dorsal cutaneous nerve of foot.
3. Note: Acupuncture on this point is contraindicated during pregnancy.

بناء على المناقشة أعلاه، تكون الترجمة كالتالي
نقطة الوخر رقم 67 على طول قناة المثانة الولية -
إذا فذكر لفظ المثانة هنا ليس إلا بيان لموضع الوخز وليست هي العضو المقصود علاجه
Note from asker:
Many thanks Fathy, your suggestion sounds really good to me. I just have one question: the text is about how to perform the moxa therapy at home on a baby in breech position. Is it really necessary to mention لعلاج المثانة in my translation? Or could delete this part, which I don't really think it fits the context I have here. Fady
