Their combination and the changes of vertebro-basilar artery's (VBA) systolic velocity of blood flow was detected.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The VBA's systolic velocity of blood flow after acupuncture were increased in all the 3 groups (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), with no significant difference among the 3 groups (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Acupuncture at Fengchi (GB 20) and Tianzhu (BL 10) or Jiaji (C4-C6 ) or their combination can increase VBA's systolic velocity of blood flow, improving blood supply of vertebro-basilar artery, but they have no synergic or antagonistic effects.</p>
