Acupuncture Charts - A Closer Look at the 14 Meridians

Standard acupuncture charts can be purchased to help identify the names and locations of the meridians and acupuncture points in the front and back of the human body. The acupuncture map will accurately show the location of the 14 major meridians and some additional points. Most acupuncture charts also show the names and locations of meridians and acupuncture points on the sides of the human body. Usually, they also have international standard nomenclature and alphanumeric codes.

Some acupuncture charts can be further divided into smaller collections that show the acupuncture points on the entire body surface [ie the back, neck, front, back and sides of the body, as well as the torso and other parts of the anatomy of the body contained in different In the layer]. There are also charts showing the upper limbs. Other acupuncture charts will show the entire human anatomy, while other acupuncture charts only show areas of the human anatomy.

Therefore, many acupuncture charts correspond to specific body parts, body functions or disorders that require treatment.

Some common acupuncture charts are the ear, foot, head and stomach. Other charts also describe the cure for hot and cold diseases and other diseases.

The bottom line of acupuncture charts is that their main function is as visual enhancement of text, they are not independent.
