​​Does Acupuncture work for treating Shoulder Pain?

​What causes Shoulder Pain?

Shoulder pain can be caused by a number of different conditions. It can be caused by tendon inflammation, instability, arthritis or fracture (broken bone). Shoulder pain can sometimes go away on its own but may last up to 12 to 18 months.

Does Acupuncture work for treating Shoulder Pain? 

Acupuncture is an effective alternative to conventional orthopedic treatments for chronic shoulder pain, according to a new study from Germany’s Ruhr University Bochum, a public university.
​

In this study, 424 patients were examined in 31 orthopedist offices. The participants were randomized to three groups, with each group receiving either 15 treatments of acupuncture or orthopedic care. One group received standard acupuncture, a second received acupuncture applied to non-relevant acupoints and a third group received conventional orthopedic care. Conventional therapies for shoulder pain include medications, stretching, isometric exercises, and steroid injections.

Results showed greater range of motion including abduction and arm-above-head-test for the standard acupuncture group compared to the other two groups. Pain level reductions were also assessed. The standard acupuncture group had a 68 percent improvement in shoulder pains compared to 40 percent in the non-relevant acupuncture group and 28 percent in the orthopedic treatment group.

How does Acupuncture treat Shoulder Pain?

Acupuncture is a drug-free therapy for shoulder pain which can:
  • Increase motion range.
  • Reduce inflammation.
  • Alleviate night pain.
  • Reduce general discomfort.

​Acupuncture can be useful in cases where conventional therapies have been ineffective. Your acupuncture physician may recommend a physical therapy program in addition to acupuncture treatment.
