In the early morning of August 9th, Beijing time, in the men's 73kg weightlifting final at the Paris Olympics, Shi Zhiyong snatched 165kg, 10kg ahead of the second place, but due to injuries in the clean and jerk, he failed in his three attempts to lift 191kg.
In an interview with the media, he said that in order to participate in the Paris Olympics, he was receiving acupuncture treatment every day, and the acupuncture needles had filled a 5-liter bucket.What kind of needle was that?
According to Guo Ziyi, chief physician of the Acupuncture Department of Sichuan Provincial Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, electroacupuncture is a treatment method that combines traditional acupuncture with modern electronic technology. It achieves the purpose of curing diseases by passing a tiny current close to the human body's bioelectricity through the needles to enhance stimulation. Guo Ziyi inferred from Shi Zhiyong's 5-liter bucket full of needles that Shi Zhiyong had used about 5,500 to 6,000 needles in his electroacupuncture treatment.
Guo Ziyi said that the effects of electroacupuncture treatment on athletes' injuries to muscles, ligaments, joints and other parts caused by training or competition, as well as lumbar muscle strain, joint sprains, shoulder periarthritis and other diseases are quite significant.
