New 2017 Study says Electroacupuncture Relieves Pain and promotes tissue repair by Releasing Stem Cells
Study Summary: A new study demonstrates how electroacupuncture triggers a neurological mechanism that can help promote tissue repair and relieve injury-induced pain. The findings provide the most comprehensive picture yet of how electroacupuncture stimulates the brain to facilitate the release of stem cells and adds new insight relating to the cells’ healing properties.
