Study about the Meridian Muscles and the Meridia, Following the View of the Mutual Correspondence of the Heaven and the Men

천인상응(天人相應)의 관점에서 본 경근(經筋)과 경맥(經脈)에 대한 연구

The Meridians are the pathways of the qi and blood, and can be used as the media of the diagnosis and treatments. There has been numerous studies about the meridians, but as the kinesiology develops recently and the attention for the meridian muscles is growing, the meridian muscles are now recognised as the complementary entity of the meridians. In this document, we considered the meridian muscles and the meridia, following the traditional thoughts of the oriental medicine, as the images of the mountains and the rivers.
