Abstract: Depression is a common mental disorder that can occur in all age groups and severely impairs patients’ physical and mental health. Western medical treatments carry risks such as drug addiction, numerous adverse reactions, and a high likelihood of relapsing after discontinuation. In contrast, acupuncture offers safe and effective treatment, with classical acupuncture techniques demonstrating distinctive advantages. By systematically reviewing recent literature on acupuncture treatment for depression, this paper focuses on analyzing the therapeutic mechanisms and advances in classical acupuncture interventions. It aims to explore new strategies for the treatment of depression while promoting the integration of classical characteristic acupuncture methods into clinical practice.
