The practitioners install the same guide-tubes as Park sham needle on CV2, CV3, CV4, CV6 and bilateral points of SP11 and SP6. 3. The verum acupunctures are inserted on each acupoint inside the installed guide-tube. (stainless steel, 0.25 mm in diameter and 4.0 mm in length, Dong Bang Acupuncture Inc., Republic of Korea) 4. After de qi response is elicited, the electrical stimulation is presented for 20 minutes by middle frequency (30 Hz). (STN-111, Stratek, Republic of Korea) 5.

The non-penetrating sham acupunctures are implemented on each acupoint inside the installed guide-tube. 4. The electrical stimulation is presented for 20 minutes by middle frequency (30 Hz), (STN-111, Stratek, Republic of Korea) even though the electrical stimulation is not delivered through the skin because the needles are not penetrated through the skin. 5.
