Resumen: Acupuncture points are conceived as points on the skin reflecting visceral conditions
and the sites for acupuncture treatment. In the skin, acupoints tend to show higher
electric conductivity and have higher concentration of neural and vascular elements
as well as mast cells. Locations of some acupoints correspond to the motor points,
others to the Golgi tendon organs. There is a group of midline acupoints. Most
acupoints are associated with meridians and are known as meridian points. The
nature of meridians is under scientific scrutiny. For identification of canine acupoints,
the human meridian nomenclature was adopted.
