Q: My doctor recently suggested acupuncture. Is acupuncture safe and will it really help?
A: Acupuncture is one of the most time-tested treatments known to mankind. If the value of acupuncture treatment was based solely on how long it has been around, and how long people have been helped by it, then acupuncture would be the most effective treatment known to humankind.
Many patients advocate acupuncture as an extremely effective treatment for many different symptoms. These symptoms include pain from a variety of sources such as sciatica nerve pain, lower back pain, arthritis pain, as well as many other conditions including nausea, inflammatory conditions, even anxiety and depression, to name just a few.
What Can Acupuncture Do For You?
You can use acupuncture to play a vital role in the reduction or elimination of your back pain by shortening recovery time and preventing a chronic condition from developing.
Research has shown that acupuncture causes the body to produce natural steroids and promote the production of natural endorphins. Steroids decrease inflammation, while endorphins are produced by the body to kill pain. Both substances can play an integral part in the breaking up of the pain cycle.
 By reducing acute back pain, you can use acupuncture to reduce the chances of chronic back pain from occurring. Acupuncture can help avoid the need for costlier and more invasive surgical procedures. And if pain can be markedly reduced with acupuncture, it also lowers the need for painkillers or other medications that can either cause unwanted side-effects or prolong your condition.
