Abstract:
In order to investigate the meridian phenomenon elicited by the stimulation on auricular acupuncture point, a patient, 58-year old, in whom marked meridian phenomena are observed on the body was selected as a subject.
The stimuli were ginen by means of a low frequency electrical stick method on the 210 auricular-points of the left ear.
The echo sensation to the remote district from the auriculo-points stimulated was observed in about 30% of the total points.
In 4.3%, the site to which echo sensation reached corresponded to the response organ that is expresed in the name of point. A point named “anesthetic point for tooth extraction” was one of the representatives.
The comfortable feeling over head, eyes, and whole body was also observed when stimulation was given to these points.
