Meridians are electromagnetic pathways. Hence they are responsive to electromagnetic energy, as found in your hands.
The chi(body's life energy) flows along these pathways.
Acupunture points also fall along the meridians.
Most meridians are named after the main organs that they pass through.
When healthy, each meridian flows in a specific direction.

Tracing a meridian along its natural direction with your hands brings energy to the muscles & organs it governs. It is not even necessary to touch the body with your hands. You can trace meridians for yourself as well as for another person.
There are 14 major meridians. They are:
1. Central
2. Governing
3. Stomach
4. Spleen
5. Heart
6. Intestine
7. Bladder
8. Kidney
9. Circulation-Sex
10. Triple-Warmer
11. Gall Bladder
12. Liver
13. Lung
14. Large Intestine
