This book represents a significant advance in the field of evidence-based acupuncture, specifically in regard to neurological disorders. It is a testament to the promising future of acupuncture, integrating the complexities of the human brain with the healing art of acupuncture. Each chapter leads readers to an expanded perspective where past and future, tradition and technology, converge in the pursuit of healing and well-being. In recent decades, technologies like functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) have revolutionized our understanding of the human brain, enabling scientists to observe the brain's response to acupuncture in real-time. Tracing the pathways from acupoint to brain structure reveals fresh insights on the therapeutic function of acupoints and meridians. Participate in this journey to understand how acupuncture influences the brain, exploring new frontiers in the treatment and understanding of brain-related conditions. This book offers a rich blend of traditional healing wisdom and contemporary scientific insight.
