We have a policy at our office. If you have a question about something, it’s likely someone else probably does too. During our weekly meetings we share our question and the answer we received with everyone else\u2014so the entire group\u00a0can benefit.<\/p>\n

Recently, I received an email from an AcuGraph user who had a question about energy stability.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Question:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

How does AcuGraph calculate energy stability?<\/p>\n

I thought you might enjoy hearing the answer too!<\/p>\n

**********<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Answer:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

AcuGraph measures electrical skin resistance at acupuncture points. To better help you understand how energy stability is assessed, let me explain the measurement process.<\/p>\n

We measure all 12 channels on both sides of the body, for a total of 24 measurements. The average of the 24 measurements is then used to\u00a0assess which channels are excess or deficient. If a measurement is too far above the\u00a0average, it means there is excess in the channel. Similarly, if a measurement is too far\u00a0below the average, it means there is deficiency in the channel.<\/p>\n

\"Excess<\/a><\/p>\n

Stability<\/strong> is then decided from there. If most channels are within the normal range, the energy stability average is higher\u00a0(within the green zone). The energy stability percentage goes down when there are a\u00a0lot of\u00a0HIGHS<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0and LOWS<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0in a graph.<\/p>\n

\"High<\/a>
\nAnalogy:<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Think of the ocean or a lake. On a calm beautiful day, the water has high stability. It’s crystal clear and smooth. When the weather is bad the water becomes \u201cchoppy\u201d and uncertain with a lot of ups and downs. <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

If the graph is mostly green (crystal clear and smooth like the water on a beautiful day) the energy stability score will go up.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

If the graph has a lot of HIGHS and LOWS (“choppy” and unstable like the water on a stormy day) the energy stability score will go down. The higher the “highs” and lower the “lows,” the lower the stability score will report.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Example: <\/span><\/strong>High Stability Score<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This graph looks pretty good. There are only a couple of imbalances. For the most part, everything looks calm and smooth. This example showed stability at 94%.<\/p>\n

\"94<\/a><\/p>\n

Example:<\/strong><\/span> LOW Stability Score<\/p>\n

Notice how this graph has a lot of HIGHS and LOWS? The channels look “choppy” here.\u00a0This example showed\u00a0stability at 56%.<\/p>\n

\"56<\/a><\/p>\n

When things are “choppy” in their graph, I just say:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“It’s a good thing you are here.\u00a0My job is to help create balance in the channels. <\/span><\/em>
\nEverything will be nice and smooth when you leave here today!”<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

I hope this helps you in your graph analysis skills!\u00a0Patients really relate to the smooth water analogy.<\/p>\n

I’ve got something else I think will really help your practice – it’s my way of thanking YOU for your support and encouragement over the years. I haven’t come up with a catchy title for it yet…but basically, it gives you 2 Actions that will Drive Patients to Your Door<\/a><\/span>.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

I know it will help you because…\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
