Acupuncture can help delay memory loss

It’s not uncommon to notice gradual loss of memory among the elderly, a condition commonly known as mild cognitive impairment (MCI). In fact, 8.5 percent of Hongkongers over the age of 80 suffer from MCI.

 

The Chinese University carried out a research recently, saying that acupuncture can delay MCI among the elderly.

The study showed that acupuncture treatments on patients between the ages of 65 to 79 helped improve their delayed recall.
