Title: Electroacupuncture

What about electroacupuncture? I did understand it is a therapeutic stimulation procedure of needles, ok, but is it only a "reducing" method, or it can be also a "reinforcing" method? And what about the frequency and intensitiy of electric waves - what are their difference and indications?

Thank you for your answers!

Electric acupuncture, if the machine is connected with the needles, that's still acupuncture.

But if it's only the use of machine, personally I don't think that's acupuncture, at least it's not the conventional way of doing acupuncture.

Personally I prefer needles, only my hands and needles, no machine.

As to the waves and frequency, you do need a special lecture, it's not so simple to give an answer here in the forum.
