Perspectives of Electroacupuncture as a New Option for the Treatment of Denervated Muscles
Original language description
Introduction: Conservative treatment of peripheral nerve injuries is based on physical therapy approaches, including electrostimulation of denervated muscle. Electrostimulation retards denervation atrophy and prolongs the time window for axon reinnervation. Aim: This article focuses on the potential of electroacupuncture, which combines electrostimulation with acupuncture, in the context of the latest knowledge on the mechanisms of axonal regeneration. Results and conclusions: The possibilities of influencing the growth rate of the axon itself through neurotrophic factors have primarily been previously proven in rodent models. Electroacupuncture as mini-invasive electrostimulation using acupuncture needles appears to be a promising option for the treatment of peripheral nerve paresis. However, this therapy needs to be evaluated in the context of human medicine.
