įunctional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), which can be used to observe the response of the human brain with the advantages of noninvasiveness and nonradiation, has become an important scientific tool, in particular for those senior human cognitive neuropsychological researches that cannot be done on animals. Current researches concerning acupuncture can be classified into three kinds: the first is to revalidate the effect of specific acupuncture points the second is to understand pain processing the third is to modulate the pain with acupuncture. In ancient China, acupuncture is not only a folk therapy, but also incorporates the metaphysical theory of “Qi,” a supposed vital energy that runs through hypothesized channels, called “meridians.” In recent decades, the international community’s related programs and researches have been increasing, resulting in the traditional techniques gradually gaining acceptance worldwide. Even so, after the passing of thousands of years, acupuncture-related treatments are not well developed in Europe. The tattoo locations on the Stone Age body found in the Alps correspond closely with Chinese acupuncture points and furthermore correspond to points used to treat lumbar and leg-joint arthritis and abdominal disorders. However, an archaeological report suggested another origin. IntroductionĪcupuncture, one of the oldest medical treatments, was considered an ancient Chinese method to cure disease and reduce pain. The results showed the cerebral hemodynamic responses of two laser acupuncture stimulation modes and implied that its mechanism was not only based upon afferent sensory information processing, but that it also had the hemodynamic property altered during external stimulation. Most activation areas were involved in the functions of memory, attention, and self-consciousness. Placebo stimulation did not show any activation. In MW groups, significant activations were found within the primary motor cortex and middle temporal gyrus of left hemisphere and bilateral cuneus. Medial and superior frontal gyrus of left frontal lobe were also aroused. In CW groups, significant activations were found within the inferior parietal lobule, the primary somatosensory cortex, and the precuneus of left parietal lobe. The analysis of multisubjects in this experiment was applied by random-effect (RFX) analysis. There are 12 healthy right-handed volunteers for each type of laser stimulation (10-Hz-Modulated wave: 8 males and 4 females continued wave: 9 males and 3 females). Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies were performed to investigate the possible mechanism during laser acupuncture stimulation at the left foot's yongquan (K1) acupoint. * Extend the standard 1-year factory warranty to 4 years by register your laser within 2 weeks of purchase.The aim of this study is to compare the distinct cerebral activation with continued wave (CW) and 10 Hz-modulated wave (MW) stimulation during low-level laser acupuncture. LEVELFIX has the best price-quality ratio on the market, this guarantees you the best quality for your money. With more than 25 years of experience and knowledge behind LEVELFIX lasers, they are manufactured You will get 4 years warranty on the CPL206G so you don’t have to worry about the quality. By turning the CPL206G on in this position, slope lines can possibly be projected.Ībout LEVELFIX™ Smart Precision Tools – Innovative, accurate, robust and complete with a 4- year warranty* The SmartLock system ensures that you can safely transport the Levelfix CPL206G because the pendulum is locked in this position. The self-levelling pendulum system is leveling itself. The LLD100GR receiver is available as an option. With the receiver the laser is able to detect up to <50m. This allows you to use the CPL206G in combination with a levelfix receiver at longer distances or outdoors, even if the line is no longer visible. The Levelfix CPL206G features a receiver function. The more light the less visible the lines are. The HighPower+ diode projects clear and sharp laser Visibility remains heavily dependent on the ambient light. The Levelfix CPL206G is equipped with a strong green laser diode that is 4x more visible than the classic red diode. You can switch-off the self-levelling system This allows you to project all the angles you want.

If the Levelfix CPL206G is not set correctly, the lines will flash. The Levelfix CPL206G is equiped with a self-leveling pendulum and ensures a perfect level of the laser lines. The Levelfix CPL206G is a compact and handy laser equipped with high-quality components and excellent specifications, 4-year warranty* and the necessary accessories to get started right away.
