ACUPUNCTURE INCREASES MICROCIRCULATION

In Japan, researchers have compared blood volume and oxygenation in regions of the trapezius muscle local to and distant from a site of acupuncture stimulation. By using ear-infrared spectrometer probes, they observed that muscle oxygenation and blood volume (indicating elevated blood flow in small vessels) increased in the stimulated region of the trapezius during and after two minutes of acupunc ...
