Report: Skin Resistance vs. Body Conductivity: On the Background of Electronic Measurement on Skin by Chang-Lin Zhang
In this paper, we discuss several critical problems of electronic measurements on the acupuncture system, such as the size, shape, location and stability of acu-points and acu-meridians; the violent fluctuation of the measurement data; the holographic phenomena and the statistical self-similarity of measurement data; the transmission of signal along meridians and its speed; the parallel distributions between higher-conductivity points and higher sound intensity points and the mathematical background of log-normal distribution of measurement data.
A conclusion, which comes from the contradictions between the results of these experiments and the existing knowledge in modern anatomy, histology, neurology and biochemistry, is that there is an invisible dissipative structure of electromagnetic fields which are mainly composed of an interference pattern of standing waves in the resonance cavity of the human body under the condition of permanent support of energy in an open system. To some extent, the invisible structure corresponds to the mysterious acupuncture system and is closely related to many energetic medicines.
The conclusion and recognition of the existence of the invisible dissipative structure of the electromagnetic field inside a body offers not only a new understanding of the background of acupuncture and many other branches of holistic medicine, but also a scientific and quantitative way to evaluate the degree of coherence, namely harmony, of a body-mind system.
