EXTRA-ORDINARY<br />
CHANNELS<br />
Extra-ordinary channels of traditional<br />
Chinese Acupuncture and their<br />
relationship to the 'Taiji Pole’<br />
Apart from the 12 regular meridians that are<br />
commonly used in Acupuncture there are at least<br />
another twelve ‘extra-ordinary channels’ (or meridians)<br />
which form the blueprint for the growth and<br />
development of the physical body. These are known<br />
by various names. In English - the Strange Flows, the<br />
Extraordinary Conduits and the Eight Marvellous<br />
Ones, are just three.<br />
These meridians, which run deep within our bodies,<br />
supply the 12 regular meridians with Qi (energy),<br />
enabling support of our DNA, our ‘genetic heritage’, or<br />
in Chinese terms our ‘ancestry’. In TCM (traditional<br />
Chinese medicine) and kinesiology, we acknowledge<br />
that the Governing and Central meridian channels are<br />
the only extraordinary channels to have their own<br />
acupuncture points, that is they are not shared. It has<br />
been documented that six of the extraordinary<br />
channels share acu-points with other points on the<br />
twelve regular bilateral meridians, depending on<br />
where they flow, however this information has since<br />
been upgraded.<br />
There are other extraordinary channels which have<br />
their own independent acu-points, and corresponding<br />
muscle/meridian relationships. The extraordinary<br />
channels integrate, strengthen, store and regulate the<br />
circulation of Qi in the regular meridians to maintain a<br />
state of balance and harmony. They link all of the Yin<br />
and Yang energy through the fascia of the physical<br />
body to nourish and provide energy to the organs.<br />
