How to locate the meridians and the meridian points?
Take a look at a “meridian chart” of the human body. They show a line of the meridian or a line joining particular points. At the specific meridian point (or acu-point) press lightly around this area until you find a spot which feels a little hollow or depressed. This is a meridian point. If you press a bit harder on the point you will normally feel pain if you lack Chi (energy) or have too much energy flowing through to that particular organ neither of which is generally good. Normally you should only massage the point lightly or semi-hard to help the Chi flow more optimally. The wonderful thing about meridian massage is that one does not need to be accurate on the points, as when one generally massage along the meridian lines, that would be fine, unlike acupuncture where it is necessary to find the exact point to administer relief.
