Brief Summary:
Evaluate the effect of systemic acupuncture on dielectric constant elasticity and skin temperature in healthy individuals
Detailed Description:
Systemic acupuncture is a therapeutic resource in Chinese Medicine that uses needles at specific points in the body consistent with a system called acupuncture meridians The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of systemic acupuncture on dielectric constant elasticity and skin temperature in healthy individuals Will be evaluated 360 volunteers aged between 18 and 38 years and both sexes divided into six homogeneous groups Pregnant women or those with a delay in the menstrual cycle for more than 28 days will be excluded The evaluation will consist of measuring the dielectric constant at different depths of the skin elasticity and infrared thermography of systemic acupuncture points The procedure will be performed in three moments pre systemic acupuncture prior to stimulation immediate post-systemic acupuncture 20 minutes after the start of stimulation and post systemic acupuncture 40 minutes after the start of stimulation Systemic acupuncture will be performed on the lower limb bilaterally at points E36 Zusanli and BP6 Sanyinjiao lasting 20 minutes The multiple comparison ANOVA test will be performed with statistical significance of 5 p 005
