Pain Management Expert

Restoring Comfort, Enhancing Performance

Chronic or acute pain can significantly affect quality of life, sleep, and productivity. Acupuncture offers a medically recognized, drug-free approach to pain management that addresses both symptoms and underlying imbalances.

Conditions Supported

  • Musculoskeletal pain: back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain

  • Joint pain: arthritis, knee pain, hip stiffness

  • Post-injury or post-surgical recovery

  • Headaches and migraines

  • Neuropathic pain, including sciatica and trigeminal neuralgia

  • Sports injuries: sprains, muscle tightness, performance-related pain

Evidence & Research

  • Low back pain: Multiple large randomized trials confirm acupuncture is more effective than standard care for reducing pain and improving function (JAMA, 2017).

  • Osteoarthritis: Studies show acupuncture relieves knee pain and improves mobility, with effects lasting beyond the treatment period (Annals of Internal Medicine, 2014).

  • Headache and migraine: A Cochrane review reported acupuncture as at least as effective as prophylactic drugs, with fewer side effects.

  • Chronic pain overall: A meta-analysis of 20,827 patients (Arch Intern Med, 2012) concluded that acupuncture is effective for chronic pain and not a placebo effect. (References: JAMA 2017; Ann Intern Med 2014; Cochrane Database 2016; Arch Intern Med 2012)

What Patients Can Expect

  • Targeted relief tailored to each pain condition.

  • Integration of electro-acupuncture for nerve and muscular pain where clinically indicated.

  • Support for both acute recovery (injury, surgery) and chronic management (arthritis, neuropathy).

  • A holistic approach that enhances not only pain relief but also mobility, sleep, and overall vitality.
