🍓Grateful for the people that spend their time documenting what we know in clinic (have been spending lots of time there so haven't had a chance to post much).

🍍What does the latest research say about Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is now supported by a growing body of high-quality research.

A major 2025 review looked at over 860 systematic reviews and meta-analyses published between 2017 and 2022, covering 184 different medical conditions.

The findings show that acupuncture has a proven positive effect for several common health issues, including:

Chronic pain (such as back, neck, shoulder pain, and osteoarthritis)
Low back pain
Knee osteoarthritis
Migraine and tension-type headaches
Postoperative nausea and vomiting
Cancer-related fatigue
Menopausal symptoms (including hot flushes and mood changes)
Female infertility (as an addition to medical fertility treatment)
Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome in men
For another 82 medical conditions, there is evidence suggesting acupuncture may provide a potential positive effect—these include depression, anxiety, insomnia, fibromyalgia, endometriosis, digestive issues, and more.

The quality of research into acupuncture has greatly improved in recent years, with studies now held to higher international standards. Acupuncture is also considered very safe when performed by qualified practitioners, with side effects being rare and mild.

What does this mean for you?

If you’re considering acupuncture, you can feel confident knowing that it is supported by strong scientific evidence for a range of conditions. Especially for pain, women’s health, and some chronic illnesses.

It is most effective when tailored to your individual needs and provided by experienced, well-trained practitioners.
