and balances the other. Western medicine isolates and seperates the disease from the person. Chinese medicine emphasizes a
holistic approach to treat the whole person.

These meridians connect with organs and glands. Chinese Medical theory, is that illness arises when the cycles and flow of
QI in the meridans become unbalanced or block.
