Abstract
The effect of traditional acupuncture on gastric motility was investigated in dogs. Six healthy dogs, of mixed breed, were used in this study. The gastric motility was evaluated by electrogastromyograms (EGMG) of the smooth muscle of the pyloric region. The acupoints investigated were ST-36, ST-40, ST-41, ST-42, ST-45, BL-21 and CV-12. The gastric motility was increased by traditional acupuncture at ST-36 and BL-21 but decreased by traditional acupuncture at CV-12 However, there were no significant changes in the gastric motility after acupuncture at ST-40, ST-41, ST-42 and ST-45.
