It has been estimated that up to 80% of the world's population will suffer from back pain at some point in their lives, with the lower back as the most common location of pain. Although most episodes of low back pain last less than two weeks, research has shown that recurrence rates for low back pain can reach as high as 50% in the first few months following an initial episode. Back pain is most often caused by a muscle or ligament strain or spasm; a disk problem; spondylosis; or stenosis. Even though acupuncture is effective and indicated for most of the body's health issues, it is generally recognized as being stellar for pain. Since lumbar pain is the number one condition affecting mankind, it stands to reason that licensed acupuncturists, whom are so adept at relieving pain, are sharing a larger portion of the lumbar pain "new patient pie.". Allopathic medicine has little to offer for pain relief or muscle spasms in the vast majority of lumbar syndromes. With the general public's ever-growing awareness of alternative and complementary approaches to pain and dysfunction, acupuncturists are sitting in one of the highest and most prestigious chairs of healing in North America. Literally hundreds of thousands of new patients will seek the service of acupuncture providers this year. That number is expected to double the following year as awareness of acupuncture's availability becomes more firmly established. For more information please call the Healing Arts Medical Center,Inc.
