Two introduction therapies are often used, ionic introduction and ultrasonic introduction.

The ionic introduction therapy is designed to extract the effective essential substances from herbs with advanced technology and prepare them into herbal liquid concentrate for ionic introduction, and then force the drug ions of the herbal liquid concentrate to make oriented movement into the depth of body surface with electrical pulses, so as to form a higher concentration locally; meanwhile, this therapy may also give electrical acupuncture to local non-fixed points for reducing swelling and easing pain. In addition, the heating function of this therapy plus herbal cushion may improve the local blood circulation. The clinical observation indicates that the ionic introduction therapy has little adverse reaction and quick efficacy in treatment of localized scleroderm, acidophily fascitis and scleredema.

The ultrasonic introduction is a therapeutic method to force drugs into the body through skin or mucous membrane ultrasonically by adding drugs into couplant. It is known as ultrasonic drug penetration therapy, or ultrasonic penetration therapy for short.

Ultrasonic waves may improve the permeability of cell membrane and expand local capillary, which is good for drug penetrated into patient's body; meanwhile, micro sound stream will be generated inside cells that can alter the cellular structure and improve cells' sensitiveness to drugs. The mechanical and thermal effect of ultrasonic wave may break the chemical bonds of macromolecules and help herbal macromolecules gather and enter the body. The ultrasonic introduction therapy is effective in relieving pain and itching, activating blood circulation, rebuilding the ecological balance of skin and resuming the micro physiological environment of skin. On the other hand, the percutaneous absorption of drugs is another way of systemic administration, which can regulate the immune system of skin and achieve the general therapeutic effect.
