Abstract

<p>This study aimed to clarify the change of the spinal motor neural function effected by ASPT (acupoint stimulation physical therapy) of Ximen. ASPT is physical therapy using acupuncture stimulation. This study enrolled twenty healthy subjects and examined the change of the spinal motor neural function in them. First, the F-wave of resting was measured. Next, we performed ASPT of Ximen and measured the F-wave during ASPT, and at 0, 5, 10, and 15 minutes after ASPT. F-wave persistence was significantly decreased at 0, 5, 10, and 15 minutes after ASPT compared with that during ASPT. The F/M amplitude ratio did not significantly decrease at any time. Therefore, no significant difference was observed between rest and any of the other times. Based on these results, we consider that pain stimulation of Ximen does not affect spinal motor nerve function.</p>
