Mild traumatic brain injury can be effectively treated with acupuncture, a new report published in the January issue of the Journal of Neurotrauma reveals.

Researchers from the University of Colorado studied the effect of an acupressure treatment which involved stimulating particular points on the body.

The treatment, known as Jin Shin, was studied on 38 volunteers, half of whom were placed in a control group which involved the same experts conducting the treatment on other points of the body that did not come under the treatment.
