Methods 650-660 nm semiconductor laser and 10.6 um CO2 infrared laser were coupled to generate integrated laser acupuncture. Controllable infrared electric heating device with negative ion smokeless moxa was mounted on this integrated laser acupuncture machine to compose the smokeless and pain-free acupuncture therapeutic apparatus. Results The integrated laser acupuncture has both the conventional acupuncture effect and heated effect generated by laser; Negative ion moxa under the control of infrared electric heating device can be electrically distillatod without open fire at the temperature lowering than the burning point and generate both warming effects and chemical effects. The negative ion moxa composed Tourmaline can send off massive negative ion when burning, which can decrease harmful gas and purify environment. Conclusion The new type of acupuncture therapeutic apparatus conquered insufficiencies of conventional acupuncture as pain, breakdown of needle,bleeding, infection, smoking, bad smell, burning, and blistering, and retain and enforce the acupuncture functions of treatment,health-care, and cosmetology.
