Abstract

The invention relates to an optical fiber acupuncture needle which comprises an acupuncture needle body and an optical fiber, wherein the optical fiber is distributed in the acupuncture needle body. The top of the optical fiber is a conical sharp end, a micro-pore is formed in the tail end of the acupuncture needle body, the top of the optical fiber is located at the opening position of the micro-pore, the laser of the optical fibers enters the acupuncture position through the micro-pore, and meanwhile an electrical signal and an optical signal of the acupuncture position are collected through the acupuncture position. The optical fiber acupuncture needle is easy to manufacture and use and low in price and can further monitor the therapeutic effect in the acupuncture process in real time so as to well guide the therapeutic process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical acupuncture needle, in particular to an optical fiber acupuncture needle. Background technique [0002] Acupuncture and moxibustion technology is a treatment method with a long history in the medical field of our country. Acupuncture and fire moxibustion on human acupoints are used to treat diseases and have a history of thousands of years. Thousands of years of history and modern medical practice have proved that acupuncture and moxibustion treatment has fast, simple and cheap curative effects, and has certain curative effects on various diseases, and is deeply loved by the people. [0003] According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the flow of Qi in meridians can be improved by stimulating acupoints, but modern science has not discovered the existence of substances in Qi, meridians or acupoints from histology and physiology. The invention utilizes optical fiber acupuncture needles to study the effect ...
