Effect of acupuncture therapy on body composition parameters / Kamrun Nahar

Acupuncture is a technique for inserting needles into the body to introduce anesthesia or reduce pain. In detail, acupuncture basically is a procedure involved with stimulation of anatomical locations on or in the skin by using different types of techniques. Acupuncture is used for maintaining condi...
