![]() The British Acupuncture Council have just released a short article about back pain. Bringing together the recent draft NICE guidelines, recent research into Ibuprofen for back pain and reflecting on the aspiration that many health professionals share of a joined up approach to pain management... this article is food for thought. http://www.acupuncture.org.uk/public-content/public-research/public-research-news/5836-ibuprofen-no-better-than-placebo-for-back-pain.html There is no 'one size fits all' solution. Patient choice, tailored to each individual is key. Acupuncture may not be for everyone, but as a natural (side-effect free) therapy with multiple benefits, it can offer you a powerful choice in managing pain naturally. For sufferers of chronic pain, every week in clinic I see Acupuncture help - not only with the pain but the secondary effects of chronic pain, such as poor sleep, fatigue, low mood - with no negative side effects. If you or someone you know is managing a chronic pain condition, I'm always happy to chat. x
