An acupuncture electrical stimulation system delivers controlled, low-intensity electrical pulses to acupuncture points, either through needles or surface electrodes. Clinically, these devices are used to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, or promote healing by stimulating nerve pathways and muscle tissue, often as an adjunct to traditional acupuncture or standalone therapy.
These systems are typically regulated as medical devices, with classification and supply rules varying by jurisdiction. They are designed for professional use, though some may be available for home use under supervision, and often require compliance with safety standards for electrical stimulation and electrode contact.
