Millions of people suffer from back pain, and it's one of the leading medical conditions for which people seek treatment. But anyone undergoing chronic pain issues can tell you how difficult it is to find relief from the problem. Medical science often is unable to offer anything that can truly cure it. New sleeping positions can be uncomfortable, stretching is time-consuming and not always effective, and painkillers are a poor long-term solution which usually doesn't work.
Acupuncture for chronic pain is becoming increasingly accepted by the healthcare community as an effective therapy in the treatment of back pain and many other ailments that do not otherwise respond to conventional medicine. In fact, many physicians and physiotherapists, already trained in conventional techniques, are adding the practice of acupuncture to their list of services, as are some chiropractors who treat muscular pain by pressing the acupoints to get the pain relief.
Acupuncture for chronic pain may achieve better results with stubborn kinds of pain, but the treatment may have to be altered to solve chronic problems underlying some cases of back pain. The treatment may also include electricity and using suction cups on specific spots. Your traditional Chinese medicine practitioner might also prescribe traditional herbs to improve blood circulation and recovery.
