Acupuncture is an evidence-based treatment modality that is beneficial for a wide range of conditions. Since the 1970s, more than 10,000 randomized controlled trials on acupuncture have been completed. Currently utilized in 103 countries, this millenia-old technique is increasingly accepted as an effective treatment modality worldwide. Research has found that acupuncture increases blood flow, decreases inflammation and pain, as well as modulates hormone levels and brain activity. In other words, it works by stimulating the body's own healing mechanisms. For that reason, it is safe and productive for most patients. As of 2023, the World Health Organization recommends acupuncture for over 100 conditions with trials underway to test the efficacy for many more.
