Evidence from randomised controlled trials suggests that acupuncture and acupressure may help relieve the symptoms of common colds and flu by:

• enhancing natural killer cell activities and modulating the number and ratio of immune cell types;
• reducing pain through the stimulation of nerves located in muscles and other tissues, which leads to release of endorphins and other neurohumoral factors;
• reducing inflammation through the release of vascular and immuno-modulatory factors;
• increasing local microcirculation, which aids dispersal of swelling.
