If low back pain is problem for you, acupuncture can help!

Acupuncture, how it works, and its effectiveness in treating back pain and other causes of body pain have been studied rather extensively by researchers. Some believe that acupuncture unblocks and moves the body’s energy (called Qi, pronounced "chee") through the body’s functional systems, such as the nervous, respiratory, circulatory, muscular, and digestive systems.

According to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), “results from a number of studies suggest that acupuncture may help ease chronic low back pain, neck pain, and osteoarthritis/knee pain. It also may help reduce the frequency of tension headaches and prevent migraine headaches.”
