As of its popularity in eastern medicine, acupuncture treatment may help insomniacs get a good night's rest. Insomnia seems to be on the rise in the contemporary world, negatively impacting not just people's capacity to function but also their quality of life. Even if pharmaceutical therapy is beneficial, it often comes with serious side effects. The practice of acupuncture to treat insomnia has a long history in China and has recently gained widespread acceptance in the West. Numerous studies have demonstrated therapeutic uses of acupuncture for the treatment of insomnia, with many also discussing the possible processes behind the therapy. An attempt at a comprehensive overview of the relevant research will be made in this section. This research was an observational study conducted in Dhaka at Suo-Xi Hospital, Shann Tower, Chamelibag, Shantinagar Dhaka, Bangladesh. A 28-year-old man presented to the clinic complaining of sleeplessness dating back three years. We used a combination of Chinese medicine and acupuncture on the patient's scalp to help them sleep better. Excellent outcomes were found in the study's subsequent follow-up. After 12 days of acupuncture, the sleeplessness that had plagued the patient for three years began to subside. Treatment with acupuncture has been shown to aid in the functional recovery of insomnia sufferers.

Background: There were double-blind studies in which cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride (Flexeril) and diazepam (Valium) were tested for their effectiveness in treating neck and low-back pain. Clinical assessments (graded), patient self-ratings, goniometry, motion analysis by computer and electromyography of controlled movements were all employed in the study. All therapy groups showed statistically significant improvements in clinical outcomes after two weeks, with Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride showing a statistically significant advantage. Improvements in electromyography were the most noticeable, with the Cyclobenzaprine group seeing statistically significant improvements. In clinical muscular spasms, myoelectric activity does not increase; the opposite is true. Electromyography and computer analysis coupled with complicated electro goniometry show improved myoelectric activity in the back muscles when prescribed strenuous motions are stressed. Methods: This inquiry took place at Suo-Xi Hospital at Shaan Tower, Chamelibag, Shantinagar, Dhaka, Bangladesh. A 34-year-old male patient has been complaining of neck pain for the last three years. Results: Follow-up research showed promising outcomes. He no longer felt neck pain which he had been experiencing for three years. Cervical muscle spasm patients may benefit from acupuncture, according to the findings of this study.

Acupuncture's impact on stroke recurrence was little understood. Ischemic stroke patients who received acupuncture therapy were studied to see whether their risk of stroke recurrence was reduced. Recurrence rates per 1000 person-years fell from 71.4 without acupuncture to 69.9 with acupuncture (P= 0.01). It was shown that patients who received acupuncture therapy were less likely to have another stroke (HR 0.88; 95% CI 0.84-0.91). Acupuncture had a positive effect on stroke patients regardless of whether or not they received medical therapy for stroke prevention. The hazard ratios of stroke recurrence for patients who received medication therapy alone, acupuncture treatment alone, or both were 0.42 (95% CI 0.38-0.46), 0.50 (95% CI 0.43-0.57), and 0.39 (95% CI 0.35-0.43) when compared to stroke patients who did not receive either acupuncture treatment or medication therapy. SUXI Healthcare Limited in Shantinagar, Dhaka, Bangladesh was the site of this investigation. A 60-year-old male patient came to us complaining of having left sided weakness for 2 years and difficulty in speaking for the same years.

Later research revealed promising results. Patient's left side weakness improved for the first time in two years, and his speech issues improved as well. According to the results of this research, acupuncture may be therapeutic for those who have had an ischemic stroke.
