Electric stimulation is included in your acupuncture session if necessary, and the patient does not have conditions where electric stimulation would be contraindicated.

Electroacupuncture

Electroacupuncture (EA) is the integration of electrotherapy and acupuncture. It uses a needle in two meridian points, or acupuncture points, and is then connected to an electric stimulation machine that passes a small electric current through the needle. ‌ The practitioner can customize the electric stimulation parameters for the patient's condition by changing the frequency, current intensity, and pulse width. Electroacupuncture helps to block your pain by activating bioactive chemicals in your body.
