Acupoint stimulation device and acupoint stimulation method using the same

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an acupoint stimulation device and an acupoint stimulation method using the same. The acupoint stimulation device includes: a power supply unit configured to supply power; a controller configured to generate an electrical stimulus signal applied to a skin of the subject; and an electrical stimulation unit including two or more electrodes configured to receive power from the power supply unit and to supply the stimulus signal to the acupoint area, wherein the electrodes are arranged in a state of being electrically insulated from each other and are in electrical contact with the skin of the subject. Thereby, it is possible to provide an appropriate amount of stimulation required for treatment and symptom relief by providing stimulation to an accurate acupoint position.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an acupuncture stimulation device and an acupuncture stimulation method using its acupuncture stimulation, and the important reaction point, which is used in skin or muscles such as Chinese medicine or manual mechanical treatment, providing stimulation, so that the meridians are smooth, alleviated The symptoms associated with the corresponding acupoints and assisted the acupoint stimulation device for treating the disease and the use of the acupuncture stimulation method. Background technique [0002] Traditional acupuncture treatment of traditional Chinese medicine is a method of treating a disease by stimulating acupuncture points using an invasive metal needle. [0003] Recently, in order to improve the effects of traditional acupuncture treatment, electric needle therapy and temperature needle therapy. [0004] Electric needle therapy is a treatment of conjunction with traditional acupuncture therapy with electrical stim...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In particular, since the stimulation signal is transmitted in the form of a pulse wave, although the signal size can be set, there is a problem that it is difficult to provide an appropriate stimulation amount required for treatment due to the short application time of the signal

[0012] If the existing common electrical stimulator as mentioned above is attached to the skin with acupuncture points and used, it will stimulate a wider range of skin, and it is difficult to stimulate the deep local area where the acupuncture points are located.
