ABSTRACT

Acupuncture and Qigong are aspects of Chinese medicine, an antique medicine of energy which is thousands of years old. Its primary method of diagnosis is the pulse at the wrist, subtle information accessible to physicians only after years of training. Biophotonics presents the same information visually and makes it available to researchers everywhere, setting in place new experimental protocols for acupuncture and energy medicines. Combining this contemporary tool of technology with principles of the ancient medicine will facilitate in the development of not only medical sciences of energy, but all of the sciences of energy that are coming.
