About the Book

Acupuncture has been in use clinically for a long period, and held its first Symposium to discuss its physiological mechanisms in the history of IUPS in 2001. The Symposium has been summarized in these proceedings, which cover the physiological mechanisms of afferent properties and analgesic effect of acupuncture, modulation of cardiovascular functions by acupuncture, modulation of autonomic functions by acupuncture, andmodulation of endocrine and immune function by acupuncture. The Symposium and its proceedings give scientific information on physiological mechanisms of acupuncture, and will greatly increase our scientific knowledge on acupuncture.

Table of Contents:
