eviewing the actions of history, and more specific the historical charts of
acupuncture. We have accepted the ancient scholars and texts as correct.
Staying inside the box of what we were taught for centuries. It is now time
for us to revaluate and seek answers to questions that review the other
possibilities. How many channels are present and where do they traverse?
Stepping outside the box of traditional acupuncture training themes to a new
system that reveals what can be systematically validated. It is very possible
that there are more acupuncture channels on the body than ever imagined.
And that there are more points than ever thought, and multiple means of
influencing these points, including coloured light therapies. Reviewing Peggy
Creelman’s work a doctor of oriental medicine licensed in the state of New
Mexico, USA, Dr Creelman has spent her professional career seeking the
‘what if’ question. She has used pulse reactive testing, something that Paul
Nogier used with auricular acupuncture, and what has been used in Vega
testing protocols, to validate new channels and new acupuncture points. Even
changing the routing of the traditional channels and making room for a whole
new way of practice. Doctor Creelman’s curiosity led her to ask, why in the
traditional acupuncture charts are some digits without channels and why are
there two channels going to the little finger? Also, Dr Creelman investigates
the use of how colour influences various points and sites on the human body.
All new insights for the modern acupuncturists.

tion of health conditions. She has served as a Board

puncture and colour therapy. Currently, she is working
on her book: “Acu-Color, The Blending of Acupuncture
and Color Therapy”, set for publication in 2017.
