AcuGraph

1. What is AcuGraph?

​

The AcuGraph Digital Meridian Imaging system is a computerized tool used to analyze and document the energetic status of the acupuncture meridians. I use this system in a short examination by touching a moistened probe to acupuncture points on a patient’s hands and feet. The AcuGraph allows me to measure and analyze the energy balance of each of the acupuncture meridians. Armed with this information, I can make better-informed decisions about a patient’s condition, the state of balance of the body and provide the best treatment possible.

2. What is Meridian Balancing and why is it so effective? 

​

Meridian Therapy uses acupuncture to treat both root and branch problems. The root treatment is done by the meridian balance, and the branch is the focused acupuncture treatment for the main complaint of the patient. 

You may be wondering why a root treatment should be done on a patient. Basically, it is finding the “why” of a disease. When the body is in balance, there is an energetic equilibrium with good movement of qi and blood, and the body can maintain health or promote self-healing from the diseased state.
