Abstract:
So far when the ORT has been used for identification of meridians and acupoints a piece of the palm of the test person.
In the present study we examined the usefullness of adding a neurotransmitter (dopamine, adrenalin, noradrenalin, GABA, serotonin, acetylcholine) to the tissue sample.
It was found that this procedure led to an increased accuracy in the identification of meridians and acupoints.
The study suggests that sdding neurotransmitters to the tissue sample improves the usefullness of the ORT.
