Research Confirms Acupuncture for Chronic Neck Pain

Is acupuncture an effective treatment for chronic neck pain?

Among adults in the US, neck pain has an annual prevalence rate exceeding 30% with close to 50% experiencing continued degrees of chronic neck pain or frequent occurrences.

A study published in the American Journal of Chinese Medicine showed the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture and electroacupuncture in patients with chronic neck pain.

The study revealed when acupuncture was added to conventional treatment it relieved pain better, and electroacupuncture relieved pain even more.

Healthcare continues evolving to less-invasive, natural, and drug-free methods, with acupuncture now being a first-line complementary healthcare choice.

Remember, the American Acupuncture Council (AAC) offers an unparalleled track record in acupuncture risk management.

There is a reason acupuncturists have trusted AAC with their business for 50 years.
