That face you make when an Acu posts about someone calling them looking for dry needling, so they lectured the patient on how dry needling is not acupuncture, and then for some reason the patient never scheduled an appointment...hmmm

Lately, I have been using relatively extensively the perfusion treatment, particularly on a patient suffering from MS. The benefits in this latter case were quite amazing, i.e., a significant improvement of energy and mobility, as well as of the general spirit. I treated this patient with almost exclusively EA perfusion treatments in the upper (T1-T5) and lower (T10-S2) segments, with weekly sessions over a period of 6-8 weeks.
This being mentioned, I also started wondering if the perfusion treatment may also offer benefits in terms of high blood pressure. Research has shown that acupuncture can reduce both the systolic BP (~ 5–10 mmHg) and the diastolic BP (~ 3–6 mmHg), as a result of (i) a reduction of the sympathetic nervous system, (ii) an increase of the parasympathetic activity, and (iii) the release of neurotransmitters such as endorphins, serotonin, and nitric oxide. An improvement of the vascular function and peripheral circulation is also evoked as a possible ...
