Ancient Acupuncture theories have the pattern identification according to the channels.
The organs and their relevant channels form an indivisible energetic unit; problems of the Internal Organs can affect the relevant channels and conversely, problems that start as channel problems can penetrate into the interior and be transmitted to the organs.
In disease, there can be problems of the channels not affecting the organs and vice versa.
• The channels pertain to the Exterior of the body.
• Problems of the Internal Organs can affect the relevant channels
• Channel problems can penetrate into the interior and be transmitted to the organs.
