Tefillin and Acupuncture

This is more Rebeljew's bailiwich than mine, but The Biur Chametz has uncovered a 2002 paper (Schram, 2002, Journal of Chinese Medicine, 70, 5) entitled Tefillin: An Ancient Acupuncture Point Prescription for Mental Clarity which claims all sorts of physical and mental benefits from the acupuncture pressure points stimulated by tefillin and their straps. (The helicity of the Ashkenazic minhag in winding the arm appears to somewhat inferior to the reverse helicity, which could explain certain pecularities seen in my shul. As could the personalities of those who consistently have their shel rosh out of place. Note to self: Must be more diligent in keeping people centered.) I wonder if any of his fellow practitioners have followed up on his suggestion in the penultimate paragraph, though.
