From testimonials, there has been recognition on the positive effects of accupunture therapy for variety of diseases. Unfortunately, there have not been any clinical proofs as in modern medicine or through the stages of analytical laboratory. It has been known that human stamina can be improved by treating with acupuncture. In this paper, electrical signals from muscle or called Electromyography (EMG) are studied in order to show the effect of acupuncture therapy on human stamina. In the experiment, the EMG of volunteers are measured when they receive stimulation from 5 kg physical load. The effect of acupuncture is analyzed by comparing EMG from two groups with the same exercise, where the first group received acupuncture treatment and the second group did not. Analytical method is carried out on the EMG data by converting into Power Spectral Density (PSD) and Median Frequency (MF). Results show that the acupuncture therapy can improve the human stamina on muscular exercises. © 2011 IEEE.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Acupuncture stimulation,Acupuncture therapy,acupunture,Analytical laboratories,Analytical method,Electrical signal,Median frequency,Modern medicine,Physical loads,Positive effects,Power spectral,Second group,Static loads,TCM (traditional chinese medicine)[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]acupunture,bceps muscle,component: Median Frequency,Electromyography,Power Spectral Density,static load[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/ICA.2011.6130132[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
