Abstract:
We investigated changes of the amperage on the dorsalis by the hand acupuncture under the condition of DC 12 volt, 200uA when both electrodes are connected.
(Method) We leaved a stainless steel needle, 25mm lenght and 0.26mm in diameter, on the first lumbar and thigh region point of 16 healthy adults for 10min. 2×2cm aluminum foil coated with keratin cream was used as a elcectrode for the measurement. We measured in pre-practice, post-practice, 10min, 20min, and 30min. The measurement velues in every time were examined by means principal component analysis.
(Results) Acupuncture stimulation on the first lumbar and thigh region point showed the tendency of operation upon the symmetric L4resion.
