fEEL BETTER & DO MORE

Chronic muscle and joint pain can significantly affect quality of life, limiting mobility, sleep, and daily activities. Conventional treatments such as ice or heat therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, physical therapy, and prescribed exercises often help to reduce symptoms. However, when pain persists despite these approaches, acupuncture and low level laser therapy may be valuable options to consider.

Acupuncture and low level laser therapy (needle-free) aim to reduce pain by stimulating the body’s natural pain-modulating mechanisms, improving circulation, and supporting tissue healing—all without the use of medication.

Over the years, there has been considerable debate about whether acupuncture is truly effective for chronic pain. Strong evidence now supports its role. A large analysis conducted by an international team of researchers pooled data from 29 high-quality clinical trials involving nearly 18,000 participants. 

Participants received either true acupuncture, sham acupuncture, or no acupuncture treatment. The findings showed that acupuncture produced significantly greater pain relief, with approximately a 50% reduction in pain intensity, compared to control groups. These results were published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, a respected peer-reviewed medical journal.

Acupuncture and low level laser therapy offers a drug-free, low-risk approach to managing chronic pain and may be used alone or alongside conventional treatments to improve comfort, function, and overall wellbeing.
