(16) Have you heard about LASER in Acupuncture. Do you use it?

 

Laser apparatus for Acupuncture are available in the market and the cost is also not prohibitive. These are around INR two lacs (roughly 3000USD). However, this has been a debatable point that LASER should not be used in Acupuncture because of the reported adverse effects. I feel that it should be thoroughly examined by experts. Moreover, many renowned acupuncturists of international fame opined that there is nothing like plain acupuncture needles for best results. I do not use laser in acupuncture.
