Diabetes mellitus is a difficult disease with a wide spectrum of morbidity. Studies suggest acupuncture therapy has a preventive and curative effect on this disease and its complications.
A recent study led by Sabina Lim, a professor at Kyung Hee University’s College of Korean Medicine, investigated whether acupuncture could be used in reducing the risk of macrovascular complications in diabetic patients taking antidiabetic medications. The results of this study were published on Feb. 2 in the Journal of Integrative Medicine.
