How does acupuncture work to help the body and mind?

Acupuncture, a traditional Chinese medicine technique, involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the skin to stimulate nerves, muscles, and connective tissues, potentially releasing natural pain-relieving substances and promoting overall well-being.
It can help with the following:

1. Pain Relief:
Acupuncture is often used to treat various pain conditions, including back pain, neck pain, knee pain, and headaches.
2. Nausea and Vomiting:
It can be helpful in managing nausea and vomiting, particularly those associated with surgery, chemotherapy, or other medical treatments.
3. Other Conditions:
Acupuncture may also be used to address other conditions, such as menstrual cramps, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome, and asthma.
4. Mental Health:
Some research suggests that acupuncture may help reduce stress, improve sleep, and promote emotional well-being.

When it comes to managing chronic pain, is there actual science behind acupuncture being beneficial?

The evidence supporting acupuncture as an effective treatment for chronic pain is so robust that, in their 2021 guidelines on chronic pain management, The National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) recommend acupuncture as one of only four evidence-based therapies for managing chronic primary pain.

Is a fear of needles preventing you from experiencing the benefits of acupuncture? Did you know that acupuncture needles are hair-thin? No really! They are about the thickness of a single strand of hair.

Because of this, this makes them much less painful than a standard medical needle used for injections or blood draws. Most people don’t feel acupuncture needles at all.
