Yes, acupuncture can help relieve chronic neck pain by promoting blood flow, reducing inflammation, and stimulating the body’s natural pain-relief mechanisms. Additionally, dry needling, which targets trigger points in muscles, can be an effective option for releasing muscle tension and reducing pain.

Physical Therapy can help with muscle spasms by using techniques such as stretching, massage, heat or cold therapy, electrical stimulation, and exercises to increase flexibility and strength, thereby reducing the frequency and severity of spasms. In addition to traditional methods, physical therapists now also use newer modalities like dry needling, which targets trigger points to relieve tension and spasms, and ultrasound therapy, which uses sound waves to promote healing and reduce muscle spasms. Aquatic therapy is another innovative approach, utilizing the properties of water to gently strengthen and relax muscles, often helping to alleviate spasms more comfortably.
