Laser acupuncture: a Needle-Free way to calm your nerves?
NCT ID NCT05458713
First seen Mar 23, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looked at how laser acupuncture, a non-invasive technique using light instead of needles, affects the autonomic nervous system (which controls things like heart rate) and the brain. Researchers tested different laser intensities on two acupoints in 103 healthy adults. They measured heart rate changes and brain scans to understand the body's response. The goal was to learn more about how acupuncture works, not to treat a disease.
