However, a single acupuncture stimulus cannot be indicative of the
cumulative effects of acupuncture treatment. Prof. Fanrong Liang and
colleagues from Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine
recruited migraine sufferers receiving 1 month of acupuncture treatment
and explored the central analgesic mechanism of the cumulative effects
of acupuncture for migraine. The aim of their study was to examine
changes in brain functional activity and central networks in subjects
with migraine undergoing acupuncture at Shaoyang uncommon acupoints.
This trial has been registered on www.clinicaltrial.gov and provides a
further explanation of the central analgesic mechanism by which
acupuncture at Shaoyang acupoints treats migraine.Source:These findings are published in the Neural Regeneration Research (Vol. 8, No. 28, 2013).
