Abstract :
Acupuncture is one of the first complementary and alternative medicine methods for a long time. Being a therapeutic method, it offers multiple applications. The mechanism of the acupuncture is an attracting project. The aim of our research is to explore the regulative effects of acupuncturing Neiguan and Shenmen acupoints. In this paper, the ERP of the acupuncture was calculated and analyzed. The change of the frequency after the acupuncture was observed. The function of the frequency modulation with acupuncture was discussed.
