Abstract

<p>An overview of meridians and acupuncture points and some acupuncture points that can be used in exercise therapy is introduced. Pressure stimulation, using the theory of acupuncture and moxibustion, can be applied to selected acupuncture points and meridians to improve functional disorders. The actual conditions for stimulation of acupuncture points have not been anatomically confirmed. Therefore, from the standpoint of acupuncture and moxibustion practitioners, it is important to continue to research and demonstrate the functional effects of acupuncture point stimulation from various perspectives. In physiotherapy clinical practice, we hope that the theory of stimulation of meridian and acupuncture points can be used to improve functional disability. We believe that an accurate evaluation of functional disability will lead to greater effectiveness in acupuncture point stimulation.</p>
