  1. Acupuncture For Chronic Joint Pains Pain is our body’s natural defense mechanism against any illness or injury. It is an uncomfortable feeling that signals us that something is wrong with a particular part of our body. It can generally range from annoying to debilitating, and it can feel like a dull ache or stabbing pain or something like throbbing, stinging, sore and pinching or twitching in the muscles. Pain in the joint can occur in hands, feet, hips, knees, spine, neck and other joint areas. Joint is an articular surface that can be defined as a point where two or more bones are connected in the human skeletal system. Chronic joint pains occur due to sports injuries in athletes, in women due to hormonal changes and in elderly people due to age factor. Chronic joint pain associated with arthritis (mostly seen in elderly) includes severe pain and inflammation in the joints, tenderness and aggravated pain that advances over time due to degeneration or gradual breakdown of cartilage, the soft cushioning material of the joints. Joint pains are often treated with anti-inflammatory drugs, but prolonged use of these drugs can have side effects in the long run. So, with the rising concerns, over prolonged use of anti- inflammatory drugs and several other medical prescriptions, people are looking for the best safe alternative medicine to deal with chronic joint pains. And Acupuncture has gained worldwide popularity for its efficacy in treating chronic joint pains and is a safe, cost-effective tool for chronic joint pain management with zero side effects.   How Acupuncture Can Treat Chronic Joint Pains? In recent times, acupuncture has gained mainstream acceptance as a medical modality. Recent studies offer evidence that acupuncture can treat chronic joint pain and associated conditions. Many people around the world consider acupuncture as an effective alternative or a complementary treatment for chronic joint pains like Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia with a decent level of improvement within the modest intervention time period. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is believed that an essential like force called ‘Qi’ flows throughout the body along 20 invisible channels called the meridians. When there is blockage or imbalance in the flow of energy results in pain. There are more than 2000 acupuncture points all over the body. During the treatment, tiny needles are placed along the patient’s leg, knees, shoulders, arms, spine, and even toes. Stimulating those points with needles can correct the flow of ‘Qi’ and alleviate pain. Acupuncture relieves pain in three ways. First, it helps body release endorphins, the natural pain killers that can inhibit pain naturally. Secondly, by blocking the nervous system from transmitting

Eventually, this process helps release tight, spasmed muscles to their resting state and as a result, it produces a soothing and calming effect on both mind and body.  How Do You Feel After You Acupuncture Treatment For Your Chronic Joint Pains?
