Regarding the case of herpes zoster on the left side of neck and shoulder, and besides facial palsy on the left, lesion appeared on H₁ Ryodoraku and H₆ Ryodoraku. As it was not possible to give strong stimulation and much needling during the first and acute stage, I gave low frequency electrical acupuncture onto two Ryodo-points (_??__??_Hoku→_??__??_Chienyu) and I received good results.
I suggest that we should have Ryodoraku measurement on the source points. The reason is that H₁ appeared above the average value but H₆ showed no change, then I moved the measuring point to Hoku and it appeared above the average value.
After two points treatment and low frequency electric acupuncture treatment, I checked the E. E. G. Some impressions were realized in the frontal lobe pre-motor area. The response being showed on the E. E. G. test can be forecasted and meridian stream moves from the large intestine meridian to the stomach merididian. I have understood the improvement of blood current showes good suggestions for Ryodoraku treatment.

Electrical stimulation through an acupuncture needle in a Chinese point of the human hand decreased the subjectively estimated sensation elicited by noxious and by tactile stimulation of the ipsilateral finger. A hyperbolic relationship was found between the stimulus duration (T, ses) required for the initiation of hypesthesia and the intensity of current (I, mA) passed through the acupuncture needle: I=0.11+18/T
