Sponsor's own description
In China, acupuncture has been used for nearly 5,000 years to treat diseases and symptoms. Increasing evidence suggests that acupuncture, acupressure, and electroacupuncture (EA) may be useful in treating patients with cardiovascular disease. Electroacupuncture is a combination of traditional Chinese acupuncture and modern electrical techniques. The PC6 (Neiguan) acupoint is believed to influence cardiovascular function and treat a wide range of heart diseases, including angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, hypertension and hypotension. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, PC 6 (Neiguan) and LU 7 (Lieque) are important acupuncture points where two main meridians meet each other. LU 7 and LU 2 (Yunmen) belong to the same meridian. Three acupuncture points have coordinated effects and act together. These points are the most commonly used areas to treat heart diseases in China and other countries and have been selected as suitable points in studies.
