Ok skeptics...
Many studies have shown the efficacy of acupuncture for pain-related syndromes. People accept that acupuncture can help pain, but mistakenly think that somehow it just masks the pain, or makes it go away for a short period of time. In actuality, acupuncture can help heal the root causes of physical pain and prevent further complications.
Injured muscles and tendons tighten in response to untreated pain. As the muscles tighten, they exert pressure, twisting and turning the supporting structures and creating further problems in the body. Eventually, untreated injuries may cause the greatest discomfort upstream or downstream from the original site, creating a confusing clinical picture.
Acupuncture and bodywork can treat multiple sites, helping to address multiple manifestations of the injury. Once the tightened structures become readjusted and more elastic, circulation is restored, and the tissues get more oxygen, allowing metabolic wastes to flush away.
