Read what the press say about acupuncture and back pain.

Most back pain is rooted in problems with the muscles of your back and legs.   Muscles pull on the bones of your body and if they pull too much, or not enough, your bone structure will be pulled out of alignment. When the misalignment is great enough, pain will eventually follow. 

Muscles work in antagonistic pairs, one pulling a bone one way, the other pulling the same bone back where it started.  For example your biceps muscle bends your arm and its antagonist (your triceps), straightens your arm. 

When one muscle in an antagonistic pair pulls too much and the other not enough it distorts the bone structure and function, eventually causing pain.  Muscle imbalances are very common and treatment centres around restoring normal function allowing the spine and joints to return to their proper alignment. 

If you have back, neck or shoulder pain, you can experience lasting relief from symptoms. Even arthritic joints are affected by muscle spasm and can be effectively treated.

When treating back pain with acupuncture, very fine needles are used to release any muscle spasm which, combined with therapeutic massage techniques and the Dorn Method enables muscles and joints to return to a healthy state.

This method of treating back and muscle pain has been used successfully in the U.K. and America for some 30 years. It's a tried and tested way to relieve back pain gently and effectively.  This makes it suitable for people of all ages.
