Results of psychophysical Deqi sensations. A. The intensity of the reported sensations measured by an average score (with standard error bars) on a scale from 0 denoting no sensation to 10 denoting an unbearable sensation. The average stimulus intensities were approximately similar during acupuncture at GB37, BL60 and KI8. No statistical differences were found among groups with regards to each sensation (p < 0.05). B. The percentage of subjects who reported having experienced the given sensation (at least one subject experienced the seven sensations listed). Numbness, fullness, dull pain, heaviness and soreness were found no statistical differences for all three groups (p < 0.05).
