Acupuncture + The Brain

Can acupuncture have an effect on the brain? Sure can according to the U.S. National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health.

"Emerging evidence indicates that acupuncture treatment not only activates distinct brain regions in different kinds of diseases caused by imbalance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic activities, but also modulates adaptive neurotransmitter in related brain regions to alleviate autonomic response."
