How it works:
According to traditional Chinese medicine, a form of bodily energy called chi is generated in internal organs and circulates throughout the body, forming paths near the surface of the skin called meridians. This whole-body network is called the meridian system. Acupuncture points are points on the skin, usually located on meridians, where the circulation of chi can be manipulated. The meridian energy flow also carries with it information about internal organs. This is the basis of the electrodermal screening test (EDS) which works by measuring electrical resistance and polarization at acupuncture points and meridians. Through these safe, skin-level measurements, it is possible to analyze the bio-energy and bio-information produced by internal organs and systems.
There are two cables coming out of the EDS, one positive and one negative. The positive lead is attached to a stylus with an electrode tip. The doctor holds the stylus by the insulated handle and presses the tip against one of the patient’s acupuncture points. The patient holds a hand electrode in their free hand. During the measurement the patient and the EDS form a closed circuit, allowing energy and information to flow from the ED to the probe, through the patient to the hand electrode, and back to the EDS. The EDS reading is a measurement of how much energy makes it through the circuit. You will experience NO sensations or discomforts during the tests.
