Acupuncture for Pain

Pain is a signal that something is wrong.

Instead of hiding symptoms with painkillers or numbing injections, our practitioners can help target the root cause of pain using traditional methods.

Acupuncture has been increasingly used as an integrative or complementary therapy for pain. The practice can help relieve back pain, neck pain, fibromyalgia, migraines, and more by stimulating the release of endorphins and other chemicals that activate the body’s internal regulation system.

Acupuncture is well-tolerated with little risk of serious adverse effects. In an update to a patient data meta-analysis published in the May 2018 edition of The Journal of Pain, researchers with The Acupuncture Trialists’ Collaboration concluded that acupuncture is effective for the treatment of chronic pain, the effects of acupuncture persist over time, and the benefits of acupuncture cannot be explained solely by the placebo effect.
