Summary :

The electrical characteristics of biologically active points (BAPs) compared with those of the surrounding human skins are investigated. We confirm that BAPs have lower resistance and higher capacitance than the surrounding skins have. We find that BAPs have higher characteristic frequency than surrounding skins and sometimes the impedance spectra of BAPs have two semicircles on the complex impedance plane. Therefore, we propose the skin impedance model that is proper to the BAPs. This model describes our experimental results sufficiently.
