Hello

A lot of time ago, i have read about diagnosis by moxibustion of first and last point of meridians.

Someone know about that and can give me link that proves this?

Thanks

I&#39m not certain what you are asking about, the closest technique I know to what you are describing is Akabane testing - this is described within our intradermal treatment page (about 2/3 of the way down on the page).

thanks for quick answer.



I think that exactly what I asked



I remember that it was diagnosing meredian for deficiency / excess by warming first or last point of meridian and counting second for reaction of patient. If patient reacts too early - thats talks about excess pattern of meredian. On the other hand, if patient reacts too late, thats mean deficiency of meredian.



Thanks a lot
