What is Meridian Energy Analysis?

Meridian Energy Analysis is used to evaluate an individual's health and energy balance.  This process involves measuring electrical conductivity at responsive points on the skin, typically on the hands and feet.  The locations of the test points generally correspond to those of acupuncture points.  These measurements are recorded to help provide a profile of one's strengths and weaknesses. 

Major groups of points are connected through the channels or meridians.  As one moves toward or away from health, the relative condition of any particular organ or system can be measured along the meridians at representative points.   As a result, stress associated with the corresponding organs may be measured.

After the initial measurements have been taken and recorded, the results may be reviewed.  If stress values are above or below equilibrium, a wide range of therapies and other measures may be identified to help one regain a healthy balance. . The MEA device allows consideration of many approaches, and may be used to asses progress or identify areas to be addressed. 

Meridian Energy Analysis provides a completely non-invasive method for gaining valuable information about the body' s vital functions.  The primary objective of this procedure is to disclose patterns of stress and to provide feedback for use in a program to help restore each system and meridian to an appropriate balance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Meridian Energy Analysis (MEA)

Will it hurt?

MEA is painless.  The amount of current used is in the range of millionths or even billionths of an ampere and is below the threshold of perception. An assistant using a probe will take readings at specific locations on your hands and feet. 


How will meridian testing and balancing help me? 

By indicating which meridians and organs in your body are balanced, stressed, or weakened, meridian testing may provide valuable data to make treatment with acupuncture laser therapy and pulsed magnetic field therapy and many other forms of treatment as well as providing useful information to you regarding foods and other means which may prove beneficial.


How does this differ from regular medical treatment? 

Meridian testing and balancing does not take the place of qualified medical diagnosis and treatment.  You are responsible for your own medical needs and must determine which type of medical care is best for you.  Meridian testing is a way to assess issues which do not always show up in traditional laboratory testing.  It may be helpful for clients who want to improve their general health as well as those with chronic problems who lack a specific diagnosis or have not responded to other treatment.


Will this procedure cure me of disease? 

The MEAD is not a treatment device, nor is it intended to make a medical diagnosis or to replace medical intervention. Its primary purpose is to assess energy within the meridians and organs.  However, meridian testing may provide a great deal of information likely to be useful both to you and your health care practitioner which will support improvements in functional health. 


How often do I need to have meridian testing and balancing done? 

This depends upon your health and the nature of any conditions to be addressed.  Commonly, one may be tested at the change of each season or as frequently as you and your practitioner desire.
