Electric Acupuncture

The term Electric Acupuncture stands on one side for electrical medical procedures based on the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), especially acupuncture, and are often combined with the teachings of classical homoeopathy. On the other side it stands for acupuncture procedures with needles which are additionally stimulated by a weak electrical current.


Electric Acupuncture is a method of the alternative medicine and is similar to Radionic spread in the twenties. The term Electric Acupuncture stems from the French physician Dr. Roger de la Fuye (1890-1961) who developed the first electric acupuncture machine. In this connection the Frenchman Niboyet had the opinion that acupuncture of TCM is distinguished by the varying electrical skin resistance to the surrounding skin. Of the same opinion was Richard Croon who developed an electrical neuralgic diagnosis. In the early fifties the principle of Electric Acupuncture was further investigated in Germany by the physicians Dr. W. Schmidt in Dachau and Dr. Schick in Stuttgart
