Acupuncture and back pain: How does Acupuncture help in treating back pain? (2)

MEET PROFESSIONALS

Pain and TCM 

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, pain is generally regarded as a result of Qi and Blood stagnation or deficiency. When the normal flow of Qi and Blood is blocked or retarded, discomfort or pain may be experienced. When Qi and Blood do not flow smoothly, the affected areas will not get enough nourishment, hence leading to mild and chronic pain. The pain is usually relieved with pressure and improves with adequate rest.
​
How Acupuncture appears to help back pain?

In treating pain, TCM focuses on clearing excess, resolving stagnation and nourishing deficiency. Pain can be relieved with a combination of treatment modalities, such as acupuncture, therapeutic massage, moxibustion or herbal prescription.

Acupuncture is the principal treatment modality most physicians would adopt as it is believed to be a more effective solution for pain. It promotes smooth flow of Qi and helps to restore balance. It also helps to dispel wind, relieve heat, and resolve stagnated phlegm and blood stasis.

Besides that, it's thought the effects come from stimulating the central nervous system. This may trigger the release of chemicals into the muscles, spinal cord, and brain. These chemicals either alter the experience of pain or produce bodily changes that promote a sense of well-being.
​​
Other theories suggest acupuncture works by:
  • Speeding the relay of electromagnetic signals. This may begin the flow of pain-killing chemicals such as endorphins. Or it may release immune system cells in the body.
  • Triggering the release of natural opioids. These are chemicals in the brain that may lessen pain or promote sleep.
  • Changing brain chemistry by altering the release of neurotransmitters and neurohormones. Neurotransmitters either stimulate or dampen nerve impulses. Neurohormones can affect the function or activity of an organ in the body.
