Physiotherapists use a form of acupuncture called dry needling, which can be used to trigger muscle twitching/relaxation (I'm not really super knowledgeable on it, I've just been to the physio, who use this in combination with massage, specific exercises etc)

It's certainly not placebo

As for all the other claims made, I dunno.
