The posterior point of the Uterus corresponds to which combination of landmarks?

In Chapman point theory, each organ has anterior and posterior reflex points used to assess and treat viscerosomatic dysfxn. The posterior points lie along the spine and nearby pelvic landmarks, reflecting the organ’s visceral connections. For the uterus, the posterior Chapman point is located at the level of the fifth lumbar transverse process and at the lateral base of the sacrum. This combination is where tenderness is typically found and where treat­ment can influence uterine function through fascial and autonomic pathways. The other options don’t correspond to the uterine posterior Chapman point: the T10 transverse process is linked more with other organs, while inner thigh and posterior IT band are not the posterior Chapman points for the uterus.
