How many channels are there?
How are the types distributed over the body?
There are twelve primary channels running vertically, bilaterally, and symmetrically. Each channel corresponds to, and connects internally with, one of the twelve zangfu. Zang channels are yin, fu channels are yang.
There are therefore six yin and six yang channels:
* three yin channels and three yang channels on the arm
* three yin channels and three yang channels on the leg.
