Biggs Chiropractic and Acupuncture

Researchers at the University of Munich have found that acupuncture is affective in the treatment of pain. The study used Quantitative sensory testing to evaluate the subjects. The results indicate that pain thresholds are increased by as much as 50%.
Although the study was limited, there is hope that additional studies will show the benefits to be even greater when treating chronic pain conditions.
The wonderful thing about using acupuncture to treat pain is that the patient can be treated with little or no side affects. This is not true when pharmaceuticals are used to treat pain. The adverse affects of pain medications in the treatment of long term chronic pain makes the promise of pain relief through acupuncture even more appealing.
