Let’s face it: Pain is a Pain (in the neck, in the back, in the behind). Pain can be physical, but it also can be mental, emotional, and spiritual (how you feel in yourself, around others, in the world). Pain has many causes, sometimes known, sometimes unknown, either way when you are in it, all you can think about is how to get OUT of it!

Acupuncture either eliminates or greatly reduces pain. It can take one treatment (rare) or a series of treatments to be effective. You will know, you either feel greatly relieved, or not. Nonetheless, acupuncture has a great record for treating pain without side effects. (Hurray!) It will either help or at the least do nothing but not cause harm.
