Acupuncture is proven effective treatment for back and neck Pain. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, pain is considered a disorder of the meridians (energetic channels) that traverse the neck and other affected areas, such as the limbs, where you may be experience symptoms such as weakness, tingling or numbness. Acupuncture for lumbar or cervical pain alleviates symptoms by improving blood flow, neuromodulation, release of endorphins and decreasing inflammation. When undergoing an acupuncture treatment for back pain, it is not unusual for acupuncture needles to be placed parts of the body other than the neck. This is called distal acupuncture.

A typical session of acupuncture for back or neck pain lasts 45 minutes and it is recommended to have 2 treatments per week to begin. 

Safe, effective and natural, acupuncture can be combined with other treatments.
