Abstract:
With the integration and application of various disciplines, traditional Chinese medicine′s auricular acupoint therapy has gained new opportunities for development. The effective activation of auricular acupoints is crucial as the initial step in auricular acupoint therapy. To address this issue, advanced techniques for physical stimulation, blending principles from traditional Chinese and Western medicine, have been developed. This paper explores the profound impact of magnetism on the structure and function of organisms from multiple dimensions, focusing on magnetobiology. It provides a comprehensive review of the clinical efficacy, research paradigm, challenges, and future prospects of auricular magnetic therapy. The article emphasizes the magnetic characteristics of organisms, particularly the nervous system′s high sensitivity to magnetic fields. It highlights the potential of modern magnetic stimulation techniques in treating brain diseases through auricular therapy. Additionally, the paper explores the research paradigm of auricular magnetic stimulation in conjunction with physical molecular dynamics simulation, materials engineering, mathematical modeling, and interdisciplinary biomedical technology. This endeavor is expected to provide valuable insights for optimizing the parameters of auricular magnetic stimulation and understanding its underlying principles. The multidisciplinary, cross-system, and multi-scale biophysical research paradigm introduces a new conceptual framework and investigative approach for auricular acupoint therapy, significantly enhancing the safety and efficacy of auricular magnetic stimulation therapy.
