Core Tip Laser acupuncture is a non-invasive adjunct therapy that significantly accelerates gastrointestinal function recovery after laparoscopic appendectomy. This study demonstrates that patients receiving laser acupuncture experience earlier first flatus and bowel movements, reduced postoperative complications, and lower pain scores compared to standard care. By stimulating key acupoints, laser acupuncture regulates the autonomic nervous system, enhances microcirculation, and modulates inflammatory responses, contributing to faster rehabilitation. Given its safety, efficacy, and minimal side effects, laser acupuncture presents a promising strategy for optimizing postoperative recovery and improving patient outcomes in clinical practice. Further research is warranted to expand its applications in surgical rehabilitation.
