Meridian points are specific locations on the body that are believed to correspond to energy pathways in traditional Chinese medicine. These pathways, known as meridians, are thought to facilitate the flow of qi (or life energy), which is essential for maintaining health and balance. Each meridian is associated with different organs and functions, and stimulating these points can promote healing and well-being. In practices like acupuncture and acupressure, practitioners target these meridian points to alleviate pain, reduce stress, and improve overall health. By applying pressure or inserting needles at these points, they aim to restore the natural flow of energy, helping to address various physical and emotional issues.
