Patient's question:
Hello, could you please explain why I often experience sudden twitches while sleeping? Is acupuncture helpful for epilepsy in Traditional Chinese Medicine?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you. Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture can effectively treat epilepsy. Epilepsy is a syndrome caused by abnormal discharges of brain neurons, leading to dysfunction of the central nervous system. Epilepsy is generally treated with medication first, of course, and the acupuncture treatment you mentioned is also effective. Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture treats epilepsy by stimulating acupoints, which has a good effect in controlling the duration of epilepsy seizures and can reduce the frequency of epilepsy attacks.
