Acupuncture & Pain

Acupuncture is widely known for its effectiveness in the treatment of pain. It has a unique role in reducing suffering in patients experiencing pain, so it has been one of the main reasons to become so popular around the world. Acupuncture has been demonstrated to activate a number of body’s own opioids as well as improving the brain’s sensitivity to opioids. A number of other biochemicals which are involved in reducing pain have been found to be released or regulated by acupuncture stimulation, including adenosine and ATP, substance P and GABA. Acupuncture represents a safe and effective alternative with a long track-record of successful use, in the context of ineffective and often dangerous pharmaceutical options for pain.
