They are called the pressure points. These are the same as those used in Acupuncture, energy points that are part of the meridian system (lines of energy that run through out the body) It is possible to measure and track these throughout the body using scientific methods, but through training it is also possible to sense the meridians and pressure points with the finger tips and thumbs
In shiatsu, the points are called tsubos. These tsubos are specific points on the body that correspond to the meridians or energy pathways. Pressure is applied to these points to stimulate and balance the flow of energy in the body.
lengthThe distance between two points is called the displacement.

Collinear points is what it is called.

Shiatsu and acupressure are forms of Asian Bodywork Therapy. They use pressure, stretching, and other manipulations to relieve stress and pain and to promote health. The difference between acupressure and shiatsu is that in acupressure you focus on a point or series of points to correct energy flow. This is done also in shiatsu, but there is an emphasis in balancing the interaction of the energetic flow in the meridian system. Shiatsu uses stretches to balance meridians as well.
