Acupuncture Relieves Rhinitis & Prevents Oral
Ulcers
Acupuncture relieves nasal
congestion due to rhinitis. Research published in the Shanghai Journal of
Acupuncture and Moxibustion demonstrates that acupuncture combined with
moxibustion alleviates nasal congestion, swelling, post-nasal drip, and a runny
nose. The research confirms that acupuncture exerts an anti-inflammatory
action, enhances immunity, and is effective in the prevention of immunological
related disease.
The research compared the
effectiveness of acupuncture plus moxibustion with nasal drops containing
nitrofurazone and ephedrine. The total effective rate of the nasal drop
medication was 55%. Acupuncture combined with moxibustion achieved an 85% total
effective rate for the alleviation of rhinitis signs and symptoms.
