Ancient Meridians

For centuries, ancient meridian theory has been studied, tested, and practiced by healing practitioners across the world. Modern anatomical teaching and practical training now illustrate that the human body is structured around twenty‑six core meridians (or meridian channels) and more than six hundred seventy acupoints.

This framework has been further validated by gas discharge visualization technology (Electrophotonics), developed in 1995 by Dr. Konstantin Korotkov, Alexander Laptev, Dr. Alexander Kuznetsov, Boris Krylov, and Olga Belobaba, building on discoveries in quantum bioelectrography and quantum physics. Orthographic imaging demonstrates this embodiment: two views highlight the acupoints of the core meridians, while two complementary views depict the skeletal muscle systems of human anatomy.

Although meridian theory has been a cornerstone of traditional Chinese medicine for centuries, its recognition in Western science is relatively recent. A notable milestone was the discovery of the Structure and Distribution of an Unrecognized Interstitium in Human Tissues, published in Scientific Reports (Nature.com) on March 27, 2018, by Petros Benias, Rebecca Wells, and colleagues. This finding provided modern confirmation of structures long described in ancient medicine as meridians.


By applying modern principles of quantum physics, it becomes easier to understand the foundations of ancient meridian theory, which may be described through the following definitions:

  • Acupoints are defined as functional access points of quantum energy, enabling the exchange between the internal and external environments of the human body. This exchange occurs through Chi—or direct current—flowing within the body to sustain vital energy, coherent homeostasis, and balanced metabolism.
  • Chi is defined as a direct current generated by mitochondrial activity within DNA, manifesting as a vital life force that flows throughout the body. Chi is equated to Scalar energy of modern physics/quantum field theory. Chi can be generated through various means, including—but not limited to—light, sound, frequency, vibration, mechanical, electrical, magnetic, biological, biochemical, radioactive, biophysical, aromatic, thermal, conscious, unconscious, subconscious, independent, dependent, active, passive, mental, physical, or combinations thereof.
  • Meridians (or meridian channels) are defined as quantum pathways or tunnels through which Chi flows, composed of collections of quantum energy access points. These pathways correspond to the functional efficacy of internal organs and are influenced by numerous factors, including spatial time, seasonal cycles, active or passive states, yin and yang dynamics, and the physical or emotional characteristics associated with Chi.

By integrating quantum vibration theory, new ways of examining, studying, and practicing meridian theory within the quantum framework of the human body emerge. These innovative approaches provide tools, methods, and systems to enhance human health and improve lives. The ancient proverb still holds true:

“Breath controls Chi, Chi commands the blood flow, and the blood flow nourishes and sustains the human body.”
