What's the difference between acupuncture and electroacupuncture?
As for electroacupuncture, it is a kind of therapy that has only appeared in recent decades. To put it simply, it is to use an electroacupuncture therapeutic instrument and clip it on an acupuncture needle to play a corresponding role through a specific frequency. Electroacupuncture therapy is a unique and independent branch of acupuncture therapy, which combines acupuncture with electricity and acts on human meridians and acupoints to treat various diseases.
According to experts, its main functions are: regulating human physiological function, relieving pain, calming down, promoting blood circulation and regulating muscle tension. Its scope of application is: it is commonly used for various pain syndromes, arthralgia syndromes, dysfunction of organs such as heart, stomach, intestine, bladder and uterus, and madness and injury diseases of muscles, ligaments and joints. It can be used for acupuncture anesthesia.
The difference between them is that electroacupuncture can only take effect after the acupuncture needle penetrates the human acupoint, so electroacupuncture and acupuncture are combined in clinical use. Electroacupuncture can enhance the sense of acupuncture and the therapeutic effect of acupuncture, especially for stroke and painful diseases, such as low back pain and joint pain. Therefore, most of the acupuncture departments now use acupuncture and electroacupuncture. There are still some diseases that need treatment. No need for electroacupuncture, just acupuncture. This situation is also true in clinic. To put it bluntly, acupuncture is purely manual, and electroacupuncture relies on machines and electricity.
