Core Tip |
Pisa syndrome is common in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients, can progress to scoliosis and may even be disabling. Currently, there is still a lack of effective treatments without side effects. We propose a new method, electroacupuncture, which may improve lateral curvature by relaxing the paraspinous muscles and modulating brain metabolism. This can ameliorate Pisa syndrome and delay the progression of PD by simultaneously treating the symptoms and disease. Thus, electroacupuncture may be an effective and beneficial treatment option for patients with Pisa syndrome. |
