Neck Pain
Acupuncture therapy is associated with functional improvement by reducing pain and increasing range of motion in the following conditions:
-
Brachial neuritis
-
Cervical degenerative disc disease
-
Cervical stenosis
-
Cervicobrachial syndrome
-
Cervical radiculopathy
-
Whiplash
With its minimal risk of complications, acupuncture perfectly complements other therapeutic modalities, like a physical therapy, chiropractic, nerve blocks, and over-the-counter pain relief drugs.
