How long does it take for acupuncture to work for muscle pain?
The answer depends on the severity and length of time you have been experiencing this pain. Initial results will be quick, but may not last, depending on aggravating factors in your activities post-treatment. Generally rule of thumb is one week for each month of symptoms for chronic pain. Acupuncture often relieves symptoms of acute trauma quickly, then follow ups work to sustain recovery and speed healing. We work. With each patient and create a treatment plan suited to their specific situation and needs, including self care tips/exercises to maximize benefits between treatments. READ MORE
