Methods： Forty cases of insomnia were treated with the electro-spoon needle, and monitored with polysomnography to compare the difference of sleep pattern before and after treatment. Results： After treatment, the S1 stage of sleep was shorter, whereas, S2, S3, and S4 stages of sleep and rapid eye movement sleep were longer than those before treatment （P〈0.05）. Meanwhile, there was a significant difference in sleep pattern before and after treatment （P〈0.05）. Conclusion： Electro-spoon needle can improve the symptoms of insomnia.展开更多
