Electrical impedance of acupuncture meridians: the relevance of subcutaneous collagenous bands.
The scientific basis for acupuncture meridians is unknown. Past studies have suggested that acupuncture meridians are physiologically characterized by low electrical impedance and anatomically associated with connective tissue planes. We are interested in seeing whether acupuncture meridians are ass...
