abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">In this paper, we study the effects of inserted needle on the subcutaneous
interstitial flow. A goal is to describe the physical stress affecting cells during acupuncture
treatment. The model consists of the convective Brinkman equations to describe
the flow through a fibrous medium. Numerical studies in FreeFem++ are performed
to illustrate the acute physical stress developed by the implantation of a needle that
triggers the physiological reactions of acupuncture. We emphasize the importance of
numerical experiments for advancing in modeling in acupuncture.</p>},
