Peripheral neuritis

The mechanism of acupuncture in the treatment of Guillain-Barre syndrome lies mainly in immune regulation.

Symptoms

  • Pain

  • Numbness

  • Sensitivity and hypersensitivity

  • Weakness in arms and legs

Acupuncture can also improve the abnormal state of patients' electrophysiology, stimulate peripheral nerves, improve their excitability and conductivity, and promote regeneration and repair of the myelin sheath of damaged nerves. Anti-metaplasia inflammation eliminates local oedema, improves blood circulation and nutritional status.
