Harmonic medicine: harmonic sounds stimulate the lung (LU; shoutaiyin feijing) and kidney (KI; zushaoyin shenjing) meridians
Resonance can be developed using music to stimulate acupuncture points. In this kind of acupunctural stimulation, a symphony may act and play a listening role.
The high correlation of transcutaneous CO2 emissions along the meridian may illustrate that the metabolism on the meridian has similar changes or relationships. A strong correlation of energy metabolism activity exists among the body surfaces along the meridian, and an even stronger correlation exists among the acupoints on the meridian.
Optimal stimulator frequency of 40 Hz through the pericardium meridian; Hydrodynamic analysis
The mean transfer speed in the meridian (4 m/s) was significantly lower than it was in the adjacent control region (8.5 m/s, ). Significant differences existed between the meridian and control points in attenuation rate () and peak amplitude (). This implies that the composition of the meridian differs from that of the adjacent control regions.
(1) Hydromechanic model (a) Guyton’s method (b) Single pressure transducer (c) Two pressure transducers provided more stable measurement (2) The transmission of interstitial fluid pressure wave (3) Presentation of the channel by isotopic migration
The findings support the hypothesis that the interstitial fluid channels form the physiological and morphological basis of the acupuncture meridians described in detail by the ancient Chinese more than 2000 years ago.
