What are Meridians?

Meridians (channels) are comparable with streets, transmitting life energy (the Qi) to all areas of the human body. The Meridian System is a sophisticated transportation network, providing energy where it is needed.

Blockages

Blockages could be compared to an accident (blockage) on a street (Meridian), leading to accumulation. Energy is not reaching its destination anymore, thereby illnesses occur.

Acupuncture Points

To release blockages, Chinese Medicine is using especial acupuncture points which reside along the Meridians. These acupuncture points can be stimulated with treatment methods such as acupuncture, tuina, moxibustion but also cupping. After a successful treatment Qi can float again unhindered so health improvment takes place.
