An electroacupuncture device includes 1) a housing configured to be implanted beneath a skin surface of the patient at an acupoint within the patient, 2) a central electrode centrally located on a first surface of the housing, 3) an annular electrode that surrounds the central electrode on the first surface of the housing, the annular electrode being spaced apart from the central electrode, and 4) pulse generation circuitry located within the housing, wherein the pulse generation circuitry generates stimulation sessions at a duty cycle that is less than 0.05 and applies the stimulation sessions at the acupoint by way of the central electrode and the annular electrode in accordance with the duty cycle.
