The modern researches proved the efficiency of the method in treatment of certain diseases, unveiled and improved the mechanism of its action, while the procedure itself got a new name – acupuncture.
The efficiency of the method is based on the stimulation of special points on the human body by using small needles. There are a total of 300 such points on the human body; however, about one hundred is most often used.
The reflex response occurs as the result of irritation: the blood circulation increases in the treated area (the local blood circulation improves) as well as in other organs through the distant impact. In addition, the acupuncture causes the reflex relaxation of spasmed muscles that is often applied for relieving pain, caused by the spasm.
The increased blood circulation ensures the good nourishing of cells and tissues, which need it. If the patient undergoes the medication therapy, then the reflex therapy intensifies the impact of medications. The heat and electric impact on treated points can be added for intensifying the effect from acupuncture.
