The brain effects of laser acupuncture in healthy individuals: an FMRI investigation.
<h4>Background</h4>As laser acupuncture is being increasingly used to treat mental disorders, we sought to determine whether it has a biologically plausible effect by using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate the cerebral activation patterns from laser stimulation...
