Can You Be More Specific?
Can you be more specific? There are many acupoints just under the elbow. Who told you about this point and for what reason are you interested in trying acupressure on this point? In addition, as specifically as you can, tell me where you think the acupoint is located. (At the bony prominence of the elbow or the skin crease on the inside of the elbow? If not directly on the elbow, toward the hand or toward the shoulder?) With this information, I should be able to tell you which acupoint you are referring to.

No Corresponding AcuPoints
The points you mention do not correspond to any of the regular acupuncture points. Of course, acupuncture point locations aren't measured in centimeters. The unit of measurement is a cun (approximately the width of your thumb). Unfortunately, none of the regular acupuncture points on the arm Yin meridians are 2 or 6 cun distal to the crease of the elbow.
