Acupuncture calms down one's mental status and anxiety. Coronary heart disease occurs when cholesterol builds up in the coronary arteries and atherosclerotic plaques form over time. This causes narrowing and hardening of the coronary arteries that supply blood to the heart.
Oxygen supply to the heart muscle is reduced, and this can lead to angina pectoris (chest pain) and eventually myocardial infarction (heart attack) or heart failure.
Acupuncture, added to conventional drugs, reduces the occurrence of acute myocardial infarction. Compared with drugs alone, both acupuncture alone and acupuncture plus conventional drugs proved more effective at relieving angina symptoms and improving ECGs.
However, compared with conventional treatment, acupuncture alone showed a longer delay before its onset of action, probably indicating that it is not suitable for emergency treatment of myocardial infarction.
