ABSTRACT
The effects of acupuncture therapy on autonomic nervous complaints were studied. Acupuncture therapy was given to 30 patients with subacute myelo-optico-neuropathy (SMON), and 53.5%, on the average, showed improvement in the autonomic nervous complaints specific to SMON. In seven of these, who had undergone acupuncture therapy for three successive years, a high rate of improvement, 77.3% on the average, was observed, indicating that acupuncture therapy is useful in alleviating autonomic nervous complaints even in the chronic stage. These results suggested an effect of acupuncture on autonomic nervous system.
