Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to acupuncture needles or needles, and more particularly, to acupuncture needles capable of increasing the effect of acupuncture therapy.
Acupuncture refers to a medical act of stimulating a certain part of the human body using a possible and sensitive needle or a similar tool to control blood donation or bioenergy of the human body and to treat a disease.
Physical and chemical effects are pointed out by the effects of acupuncture or acupuncture, and mechanical and electrical stimuli are mentioned as physical effects, and chemical effects include alteration of the procedure, changes in blood, secretion of hormones, and Changes, drug changes, etc.
Recently, called electroacupuncture (EA), an acupuncture needle is inserted into a bedding point for pain reduction and symptom relief, and electrotherapy is performed by flowing pulse currents of anode and cathode through the inserted bedding needle. . Unlike traditional bedding, it also stimulates muscles or areas between a pair of inserted needles.
The present invention provides a bedding needle that can improve the minute electrical effects on the body during acupuncture.
The present invention provides a bedding needle that can have a minute electrical effect on the body by using a metal having different electrical properties, and can increase the effect of acupuncture.
The present invention provides a bedding needle that can perform the desired function by using a heterogeneous metal contact and the electrical characteristics of the body even without using a separate power source.
Acupuncture needles generally include a needle member inserted into the body. Although a gripping member for holding by hand on the needle member may be provided in the form of a coil spring as an example, the presence or absence of the gripping member and the shape of the gripping member may be variously selected and changed. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the needle member may include a first metal contact portion, a second metal contact portion insulated from the first metal contact portion, and between the first metal contact portion and the second metal contact portion. It includes an insulating portion interposed therebetween, characterized in that to influence the minute current to the body by using the electrical characteristics difference between the first metal contact portion and the second metal contact portion inserted into the body.
For example, the first and second metal contact portions may form a difference in electrical characteristics by using different kinds of metals, and a body part in which a bedding needle is inserted through both metal contact portions by the difference in electrical characteristics. The change of the microcurrent can occur around the. It may be influenced by a current of minute intensity that cannot be detected through both metal contacts, and through the current that is too small to feel it can increase the therapeutic effect of acupuncture.
In the present specification, the microcurrent is a current in the range of several hundreds to several hundred microamps, and in general, the sensory level may be referred to as sub-sensory level stimulation. Such microcurrent stimulation can be distinguished from other types of electrical stimulation because the strength of the current is much lower than the form such as transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation). In addition, in the present invention, the microcurrent is not generated by an external current supply device, but is generated by a metal having different electrical characteristics such as electronegativity, thereby realizing a continuous and almost uniform microcurrent supply.
In the conventional method using an electric needle, the microcurrent can be generated around the bedding point by inserting a metal having different electrical characteristics into the body, as opposed to supplying a microcurrent from the outside. May provide effects beyond conventional bedding needles.
Although it uses an external microcurrent stimulator, the effect of using a microcurrent 1) Oh Hye-jin, Kim Jung-woo et al., "The effect of microcurrent electric stimulation on the histological structure of rat wound", The Journal , The Korean Academy of Physical Therapy, 2008, 2) Hyun-Joo Oh, Jong-Yul Kim et al., "The Effect of Microcurrent Stimulation Therapy on Pain and Function Recovery in Patients with Chronic Low Back Pain," Journal of the Korean Society of Physical Medicine, Vol. 3, No. 1 2008 , 3) Park, Rae-Joon, Choi, Sang-Jun et al., "The Effect of Microcurrent-Generated Shoes on Foot Relief and Pain Relief in Patients with Plantar Fasciitis," Journal of the Korean Physical Therapy Society, Vol. 18, No. 1, February 2006, , "The Effect of Wearing Microcurrent-Generated Shoes on the Changes of Blood Flow in Patients with Chronic Plantar Fasciitis," Journal of the Korean Physical Therapy Society, Vol. 18, No. 3, June 2006, 5) Park, Young-Han, "Effects of Electrical Stimulation on Bacterial Growth", For physics Ryo Journal Vol. 6, No. 1, it can be seen through the paper, such as 1994.
For reference, in the present specification, the metal contact portion may be formed using two or three or more metals, and the third and fourth metal contact portions insulated from the second metal contact portion may be further formed, which is also the present invention. Will be included.
Acupuncture needles according to the present invention can further enhance the therapeutic effect by adding a fine electrical effect to the body beyond the function of conventional bedding needles. This uses metals with different electrical characteristics, which may affect the existing electrical flow in the body or form a new flow, and may cause a change in the microcurrent with only one bedding point. The current of the cathode does not have to be supplied.
Acupuncture needles according to the present invention can continuously maintain the effect of the micro current even without using a separate power source, and can perform the intended function by stimulating blood or meridians with a heterogeneous metal contact.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited or limited by the embodiments. For reference, in the present description, the same numbers refer to substantially the same elements, and may be described by quoting contents described in other drawings under such a rule, and the contents repeated or deemed apparent to those skilled in the art may be omitted.
