Energy Meridians
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has the concepts of Energy Meridians. These meridians are channels through which the life force energy (Chi) flows within the body, not unlike blood vessels. There are 12 meridians on the arms and legs and they correspond to 12 body parts (one of which does not exist in standard medicine):
- (HT) Heart
- (PC) Pericardium
- (Lu) Lung
- (SP) Spleen
- (LV) Liver
- (KD) Kidney
- (SI) Small Intestine
- (TH) Triple Heater
- (LI) Large Intestine
- (ST) Stomach
- (GB) Gall Bladder
- (UB) Urinary Bladder
1. (CV) Conception Vessel
2. (GV) Governing Vessel
