Electroacupuncture, also known as electroacupuncture according to Voll (EAV), electrodermal screening (EDS), bioelectric functions diagnosis (BFD), bio resonance therapy (BRT), or bio-energy regulatory technique (BER), is a controversial alternative medicine method of using electrodiagnostic devices to diagnose and treat “energy imbalance” often using homeopathic products, first used by Reinhold Voll by combining acupuncture with galvanometer in 1958. It is not used in conventional medical treatments.
