Acupuncture for Neck Pain
Neck pain is a common problem; it may arise due to muscular tightness in the neck and upper back, pinching of the nerves and other spinal problems. Other accompanied symptoms might include headache, dizziness, heart palpitations, insomnia and etc.
How does acupuncture work for neck pain?
Acupuncture moves the blood flow and energy to the involved area to release the pain, tightened muscles and speed up the healing. Acupuncture also releases the pressure caused by pinching of the nerve and relives the accompanied symptoms.
Course of treatment
There are 10-15 acupuncture sessions in one course of treatment. Treatment frequency depends on individual condition. Chinese herbs work synergistically with acupuncture.
