As the second article in the three articles planned by my mentor, Dr. Zhang, as published in the October issue of Acupuncture Today.
In it, Dr. Zhang discusses the qualities of the Meridian System from multiple angles, coming to a conclusion that seems so obvious, yet seems difficult to grasp for those of us who are firmly planted in what we understand of the physical world. While this may seem to be an esoteric and academic topic to some, the idea is to challenge the way we view the space that exists all around us and hopefully to raise our skills in recognizing root causes of illness as clinicians.
Please have a read!
Due to the new format of Acupuncture Today, I am unable to link directly to the article. The article is split into 4 sections, located on pps 28, 32, 43 and 45. I apologize for the trouble. For those of you who wish to read the whole document off the AT website, you can do so here.
Any comments or thoughts on Dr. Zhang's theories are welcomed and I promise to relay them to Dr. Zhang if I am not able to answer them.
