激光照射穴Helium-neon laser has many functions such as counteracting inflammation analgesia

dilataling blood vessels

regulating immunity function

promoting the cure of ulcer.Because the irratiation of helium-neon laser is reflexed by the skin

absorbed by the tissue and rediated crosswidely etc.

its penetrating force is limited to a certain extent.Since it is unable to reach a proper depth with an effective strength

for the treatment of deep tissue inflammation or for acupuncture therapy

its clinical curative effect is weak.We have resea- rched a new way of laser acupuncture.It can irradiate and treat through laser into the deep tissue.After one year's treatment of 326 patients

we have made better clinical curative effect. The exportend of the tube of helium-neon laser is coupled with the fiber optics (diameter 50/125mm).This fiber optics bundle can be inserted into a special hollow acupuncture needle with its diameter similar to a syringe needle of No.5 or No 5(1/2).Thus a laser acupuncture needle is constituted. Among 326 cases

the cure rate of 13 kinds of diseases was 62.9% and the general effective rate was 99.3%.In 114 cases of prostatitis treated

the cure rate was 55.3%

the general effective rate 99.1%

in 61 cases of chronic colitis treated

the cure rate was% 73.8

the general effective rate 100%.In 40 cases of periarthritis of the shoulder treated

the cure rate was 65%

the gen- eral effective rate 100%.In 36 cases of ischiagia treated

the cure rate was 77%

the general effective rate 97.2%. In all 326 cases (3

186 person-times) treated with laser acupuncture needle inserted into the tissue or the acupoint showed no abnormal reaction

indicating that this method is feasible

effective and safe.The Success of it opens up a new field for laser medicine

enriches and develops acupuncture therapy.
