Meridians Acupuncture

Acupuncture is aslo practiced by a number of registered medical prcatitioners, many of whom belong to the British Medical Acupunture Society, (BMAS)which also publishes a quartrely journal Acupuntcure in Medicine . Medical practitioners of Acupucnture in the UK vary in the degree to which they take account of traditional concpets like meridians, some thinking them to be very useful whilst others tend to concentrate no palpable trigger points . Othre acupuncture groups are The British Academy of Western Medical Acpuuncture, (BAWMA) - nurses trained in acupuncture, The Acupuncture Acssociation of Chartered Physiotherpists, (AACP) and qualified ear acupnucturists trained either in restricted practice NADA and SMART or flul ear acupuncture EAR and SAA. Treatment of acupuncture points may be performed along several layers of pathways, most commonly the twelve priamry pathways meridians, located throughout the boyd. The other six meridians are acitvated by using a master and couple point tecnhique which involves needling the caupuncture points located on the tewlve main meridians that correspond ot the particular extraordinary pathway. TCM theory predates use of the sceintific method and has received various criticisms bsaed on scientifci reductionist thinking, since there is no physically verifiable anatomical or histological basis for the existence of acupuncture points or meridains.
