    Acupuncture therapy shows excellent results for hyperthyroidism, trigeminal neuralgia, and intercostal neuralgia. Over 80% of patients experienced significant improvement, classifying these conditions as highly responsive to acupuncture treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Integrative Medicine
    • Neurology
    • Endocrinology

    Background:

    • Acupuncture is a traditional therapy with growing recognition in modern medicine.
    • Classifying diseases by acupuncture responsiveness and identifying effective acupoints is crucial for clinical application.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To classify diseases based on their response to acupuncture therapy.
    • To identify the most effective acupuncture loci and techniques for specific conditions.

    Main Methods:

    • Treatment of over 500 patients with hyperthyroidism, trigeminal neuralgia, and intercostal neuralgia using acupuncture.
    • Detailed reporting of treatment outcomes, acupoint selection, and needle manipulation techniques.

    Main Results:
