Millions of people experience back pain, but you don't have to suffer in silence.
At Relief Acupuncture, we offer a safe and effective natural solution: acupuncture for back pain.
Common Causes: Back pain is a frustratingly common experience, affecting millions of people. The causes vary. Muscle strain or tension from bad posture, lifting heavy objects, or repetitive movements are most common. Injuries, arthritis, and even stress can also trigger back pain.
Traditional Treatments: Traditional treatments often focus on pain relief with medications or muscle relaxants (which can cause drowsiness). Physical therapy and steroid injections are other options, but may not be long-term solutions. Unfortunately, many patients undergoing these treatments still suffer an enormous amount of pain.
Acupuncture for Back Pain: Acupuncture is a natural, drug-free approach to managing back pain. By targeting specific acupuncture points, acupuncture can help reduce inflammation, promote pain relief, improve muscle relaxation, and enhance circulation.
Acupuncture is an effective alternative in many cases and can help with chronic back pain. Many of our patients have “tried everything” before finally turning to acupuncture and finding some relief. Studies show acupuncture can help relieve pain:
Promotes Healing: Acupuncture works by triggering your body's natural pain-relieving chemicals to treat pain and inflammation at the source. It also helps stimulate blood flow to the affected area, promoting healing and tissue repair.
American Pain Society Approved: The American Pain Society and American College of Physicians recommend acupuncture for chronic low back pain.
