Acupuncture is a reflex therapy with the aim of rearranging an imbalance of the organism. Acupuncture is a regulatory therapy. At first, there have to be diagnosis and indication according to the rules of western modern medicine. With that, we carry on with a standard program and standard exciting needle technique. We will report about acupuncture in neurology in three chapters: neuro-orthopedics, neuropsychiatry and somatopsychic diseases.
