The author has been thinking to apply the idea to Ryodoraku therapy as well as herbal medicine.
The author devided abdomen into some parts, and gave needling stimulation or electric acupuncture, then systematized relations to an each region of the whole body based on realized needle sensations. Thus, the author conceived abdominal mutual relation zone. (Japanese J. Ryodoraku No.4 April 1980 vol.25; No.6 June 1980 vol.25; No.3 May 1981 vol.26) And limbs mutual relation zones are also conceived in the same way.
Since then, the author has been studying about abdominal syndrome and has found that required abdominal syndrome for treatment is recognized in a part of the twelfth rib, a part of the navel or a part of the abdomen, and these have close relation to A zone or E zone in lower limbs mutual relation zone. Generally, a part of the twelfth rib is related to A zone, and parts of the navel and abdomen are related to E zone. But E zone is occasionally related to M zone. Accordingly, then aroses a question which is that the position of abdominal syndrome may change the amount of the electric current.
