Abstract (en)

[origin: DE102006001598A1] The needle has a material that is reabsorbed by a body. The material is adjusted by variation of its composition such that the time period of the reabsorbtion is determined. The material is loaded with information on the basis of indication specific frequency for further amplification of acupuncture effects. The material is composed such that the energy process is used during the reabsorbtion for simulation of acupuncture points. An independent claim is also included for an application of an acupuncture needle for acupuncturing an entire body.
