The small-scale research that currently stands, however, suggests that it may help alleviate symptoms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Related CME journal article:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.journalofchinesemedicine.com\/the-acupuncture-treatment-of-chronic-prostatitis-chronic-pelvic-pain-syndrome-22641.html\">The Acupuncture Treatment of Chronic Prostatitis\/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far, three scientific reviews suggest that acupuncture is worth investigating as an alternative therapy treatment for psoriasis. Two of the studies&#8211;a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Abstract\/381225\">2015 systematic review<\/a> and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liebertpub.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1089\/acm.2016.0158\">2017 review<\/a> of 13 randomized trials&#8211;saw a slight benefit to acupuncture treatments, but also some conflicting results. A third review yielded a more positive result. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1080\/09546634.2016.1224801\">2017 literary overview<\/a> cited acupuncture therapy as an easy method that produced effective results, all with little to no risk of side effects on the patient. The outlook is even more positive on patients with joint pain. In 2018, a <a href=\"https:\/\/jamanetwork.com\/journals\/jama\/fullarticle\/2687355\">study<\/a> found that acupuncture treatments alleviated joint pain in postmenopausal women with early-stage breast cancer. The following year, researchers found that patients with rheumatoid arthritis in the hand experienced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liebertpub.com\/doi\/full\/10.1089\/acm.2018.0297\">fewer pain symptoms<\/a> and more strength after they received acupuncture treatments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Related blog article: <a href=\"https:\/\/aceaglobal.com\/continuing-education-journal\/medical-insights\/acupuncture-aid-for-infertility-and-pelvic-inflammatory-disease\/\">Acupuncture Aid for Infertility and Pelvic Inflammatory Disease<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps more intriguing about acupuncture is its observed effects on patients with Parkinson\u2019s Disease. In May 2019, researchers from the journal <em>Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience<\/em> found evidence that points to the idea that acupuncture <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fnagi.2019.00102\/full\">may improve patients\u2019 motor skills<\/a> by enhancing specific neural pathways in the brain that control movement. The researchers observed the results of bee venom acupuncture treatment with magnetic resonance imaging. Korean scientists conducted a review of 42 studies of acupuncture on rodent subjects and concluded that 40 of the 42 studies properly demonstrated that acupuncture increased tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in the <em>substantia nigra <\/em>region of the brain&#8211;the region which is primarily affected by Parkinson\u2019s Disease. This finding is fairly significant because tyrosine hydroxylase is a key enzyme involved in dopamine production. Symptoms of Parkinson worsen if there is a shortage of dopamine in the brain. However, the studies could not prove that acupuncture increased dopamine levels. Still, test subjects in multiple of the studies were shown to demonstrate alleviated symptoms after treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Researchers have not yet reached the conclusion of whether or not acupuncture is a viable treatment for the conditions listed. Though more comprehensive studies still need to be conducted, the existing evidence suggests that there is validity to this traditional practice. The extent of these effects has yet to be determined. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested in more acupuncture knowledge?
