meridian system

The meridian system, rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, describes pathways in the body through which vital energy, or "Qi," flows. These channels connect organs and tissues, facilitating balance and health. Unlike blood vessels, meridians are seen as energetic routes that influence physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Practitioners work to unblock or harmonize this flow through techniques like acupuncture, acupressure, or massage, aiming to restore natural balance and support overall health. While scientific evidence is limited, many find these methods helpful for managing various health concerns and promoting wellness.
