Chrono Acupuncture

iOS iPhone

This application calculates the optimal effectiveness of acupoints:

The concept of energy phases is a system which describes the changes in the constellation of energies at different periods of time. Since the flow of qi and xue through the channels is not constant but is rather of a rhythmic character, certain acupuncture points are more accessible and responsive at certain times and the ability to influence the circulation of energy via these particular acupuncture points is greater at these times.

This application allows you to:
- Calculate the Heavenly Stem and the Earthly Branch of the respective year, month, day and hour (Bazi, the Four Pillars of Chinese astrology)
- Determine the principal acupoint according to the current date/time or any user-defined date/time and location
- Determine the principal acupoint according to the Eight Methods of the Intelligent Turtle (Linggui bafa)
- Determine the principal acupoint according to the so called Selection on Day Time according to the Heavenly Stems (Najia ba)
- Calculate the optimal acupoints with the corrected time (True Local Time), which considers Daylight Savings Time, Longitude and Equation of Time)
- Set your current location with the help of the iPhone built in GPS function (3G only) or set location manually
