Meridian Stress Assessment Meridian Stress Assessment (MSA) is a modality used to determine the energetic balance of the patient's body. Dr. Housman recommends BioMeridian Testing as one method for determining a course of treatment to bring the body back into healthy balance.

According to European medical research, acupuncture points are related to the body's organs and organ systems. Major groups of points interconnect through channels, or meridians. Twenty of these meridians begin or end on the hands and feet.

The MSA involves measuring electrical conductivity at these meridians, or responsive points, typically at the same locations used in acupuncture. Once the initial measurements have been taken, Dr. Housman then reviews the results to determine if stress values fall above or below equilibrium. Using the extensive computer database with the MSAS, she will consider and make recommendations from a wide range of treatment courses to regain health balance, including herbal, homeopathic and nutritional products.

Biomeridian testing and analysis with the MSAS provide a completely non-invasive method for gaining valuable information about the body's vital functions. Dr. Housman uses the MSAS to disclose patterns of stress and provide feedback for creating a thorough program to restore each system and meridian to an appropriate balance.**

**Neither the MSAS®-Professional or the MSAS®-InSite meridian stress assessment system provide a medical diagnosis. If patients suspect that they need medical intervention, they should consult their physicians who can provide medical diagnosis and preswcribe appropriate treatment regimens.


Yours in good health,
