Electro-Acupuncture therapy is a method of preventing and treating diseases by inserting filiform needles into acupoints to obtain qi sensation, and then applying pulsed currents from an electro-acupuncture device through the needles to stimulate the meridians and acupoints of the human body.

Electro-acupuncture has good electrophysiological properties, which can regulate and balance the meridians and internal organs associated with the acupoints. It can also promote blood circulation, enhance metabolism, reduce inflammation and relieve pain, helping to restore the normal function of pathological tissues and organs. Electro-acupuncture therapy is suitable for various pain syndromes, sensory or motor disorders, and organ dysfunction diseases. For example, it is commonly used in clinical practice to treat headaches, back pain, neck, shoulder, and leg pain, as well as other neuromuscular pains. It is also frequently employed for the treatment of post-stroke sequelae, facial paralysis, menstrual disorders, obesity, etc.

This therapy combines the effects of filiform needles and electrophysiological responses, which not only improves the efficacy of filiform needle treatment but also reduces the workload of manual needle manipulation and expands the scope of acupuncture treatment.
