Why is the organization of the cardiovascular system important?
The reason the Chinese view of the cardiovascular system organization is important is the idea of specific vessels supplying discrete superficial areas of the body as well and the internal organs and regions is a unique OM physiological discovery that provides an explanation on the importance of the formation of neurovascular nodes (acupoints) in the superficial regions and their somatovisceral relationships. To teach students acupoint locations and their therapeutic indications is very difficult if the students have no understanding of the underlying neurovascular relationships. These main distribution vessels (jingmai) also supply the longitudinally muscular distributions as well and are important to understanding the musculoskeletal system and treatment approaches.
