Scalp acupuncture is a modern acupuncture method that is distinctive from traditional acupuncture therapy. Scalp acupuncture was developed in China during the 1970’s based on the function of the neural system. The procedure involves inserting short, disposable needles on specific points of the head. This process is virtually painless. This therapeutic method is particularly effective in treating disorders of the central nervous system and various acute and chronic pain syndromes.
Wu’s Scalp Needles Technique was developed by Dr. Po-Hsiung Wu in Taiwan. Dr. Po-Hsiung Wu has more than 30 years of experience using this technique. The method is known for treating the following medical conditions:
-
stroke

post stroke syndromes

Bell’s Palsy, trigeminal neuralgia
-
seizures

migraines
-
headaches
-
herpes zosters
