Skeletogenesis and acupuncture points
Progress in Biophysics and Molecular BiologyThe formation of the embryo begins with a "calcium wave" that contributes to the creation of heterogeneities, and then some of them solidify. The further development and a collective information architecture of the embryo is controlled by the so-called morphogenetic field, whose nature is mainly associated with a physical inerton field that is a ...

What is the Point of Acupuncture?
Medical Acupuncture, 2015Abstract Background: Acupuncture skeptics consider The Yellow Emperor's Internal Medicine—a classic that is important to the theory and practice of acupuncture—as a work based on metaphysics. This claim is one of the factors preventing the mainstream biomedical community from accepting the clinical merit of acupuncture.

The Comparison of trigger point acupuncture and traditional acupuncture
World Journal of Acupuncture - Moxibustion, 2016Abstract Trigger point (TrP) acupuncture (dry needling), the use of solid filiform needles at TrPs, has been developed from a comprehensive integration and adaptation of traditional acupuncture using current understandings of TrPs. During the past twenty years, the concept and technique continues to evolve, with a potential to expand to other ...

Acupuncture Points of the Cervical Plexus
The American Journal of Chinese Medicine, 1984Acupuncture points in the neck region are basically distributed along the terminal branches of the cervical plexus. There are two components of the plexus, cutaneous and muscular. The cutaneous component of the cervical plexus consists of four major branches which are the lesser occipital, great auricular, transverse cervical, and supraclavicular ...

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2009
We used synchrotron x-ray fluorescence analysis to probe the distribution of four chemical elements in and around acupuncture points, two located in the forearm and two in the lower leg. Three of the four acupuncture points showed significantly elevated concentrations of elements Ca, Fe, Cu and Zn in relation to levels in the surrounding tissue, with ...

Acupuncture Points of the Cranial Nerves
The American Journal of Chinese Medicine, 1984An attempt is made to name most of the acupuncture points in the face and forehead region using anatomic nomenclature known to western medicine. All acupuncture points in the face and forehead region are located along terminal or cutaneous branches of the trigeminal nerve and the motor points formed between muscular branches of the facial nerve to the

Acupuncture & Electro-Therapeutics Research, 2014
In this study, we chose 10 acupoints and non-acupuncture point control groups to see if there are electrical differences between acupoints and non-acupoints. 4 adjacent non-acupoints around each acupoint were chosen as a control group in 400 trials on 10 volunteers aged 23-30 years to characterize the Power Spectral Density of acupoint ...

A circuit model of acupuncture point and system model of acupuncture point-cerebral cortex
IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems, 2003By combining the doctrine of traditional Chinese medicine with the theory of neural networks, a circuit model of acupoint is developed and its dynamic behavior is studied. Based on the brain wave caused by stimulating at three appropriate acupoints, a system model of the connections between the acupoints and the cerebral cortex can be estimated. >

Acupuncture Points of the Brachial Plexus
The American Journal of Chinese Medicine, 1985This publication is the third of a total of six papers intended to name acupuncture points following the anatomic nomenclatures. In the first publication, acupuncture points in the head are named using terminal branches of the trigeminal nerve and the muscles of facial expression.
