All important energy inside every human body is not radiated to the outside only; it also has circulated throughout inside body following certain traffic conditions. This is called Meridians. A meridian is network of energy channels or power lines that run vertically from the body, connecting all body components or organs. It is easy to describe Meridians and easy to understood if we portrayed it like a city highway. In city highway there is entry and exit way, merging roads and link roads. In a condition where there is a flood located at an exit blocked, the streets of the ramp can not be accesses. This will cause problem to people who live and work in the street.
What’s the temporary solution and more causing problem is when the traffic on the road become accumulated waiting to open the road. There should be traffic backup in the highway. A meridian is having the same principle like this way. Let say if one kind of exclusion affects human hip, the paths of energy to climb this hip get a second way or back up. The motion of hip is limited by pain or discomfort, this put another obstacle to the leg and foot to a different location creates a burden on other muscle groups. Changes in bodys overall posture impact on the state of internal organs, the system get of limitations nutrition, changes in organ function and thus changes the balance of the body. Since the body and mind are involved, the person will think and feel on different manner. This will extend to greater stress and other changes.
Every Meridian’s channel is located near the surface of the skin at points called “hsueh”. Hsueh means cave or hollow, which can be associated with a point of acupuncture. Because each meridian is linked to internal organs, acupuncture points to access systems on the surface of internal organs. The flowing of Qi can be enhanced or attenuated by manipulation of specific points along the way. Maintaining the flow of energy will lead to the state of balance and health in human body.
There is a research on machines named AMI (Apparatus for Meridian Identification) in The California Institute for Human Science. AMI machines can evaluate the flow of ions through within human body. It only take approximately in 10 minutes, AMI machines may get full assessment of the status of the person standing Meridian energy system and their internal organs. This flow of ions is not the energy Qi itself. Instead, it is only a side effect of electromagnetic Qi affect as the sign of the field of physics. AMI is now becoming more popular and is known for its wide distribution as a diagnostic tool in medicine.
