Wiki

Meridians are pathways of energy from acupressure or acupuncture points to internal organs.

According to acupuncture, these are the invisible channels through which qi circulates throughout the body. There are 12 main meridians, six of which are yin and six are yang and numerous minor ones, which form a network of energy channels throughout the body.

In acupuncture, each meridian is related to, and named after, an organ or function.
