Relief of the chronic pain

as the negative reinforcement of pain

is recognized as a reward and it activates related brain's reward circultries. Brian's reward circuits not only relate to rewards

but also participate in pain process. Currently

the reward effect of acupuncture on chronic pain relief and the mechanism of brain's reward circuits involved in acupuncture analgeisa have not been revealed adequately yet. This paper reviewed the conceptual features of analgesia reward and the new progression of brain's reward circuits and function

expounded the valuable clinical and scientific significance of the researches for the reward effect of acupuncture analgesia and related brain's reward circuits

proposed the ideas and suggestions on many questions in the study of reward effect of acupuncture analgesia and related brain's reward circuits

and then

determined the multi-dimensional characteristis and positive regulation of acupuncture analgesia. Focusing on the reward effect of acupuncture and related brain's reward circuits for chronic pain relief

the research on the regulatory effect of acupuncture analgesia will be conductive to deepen the understanding of acupuncture analgies in clinical practice and innovate a research concept of acupuncture analgeis. Eventually

a new approach can be provided to further elaborate neurobiolgical mechanism of acupuncture analgesia.
