Question
can acupuncture be an effective way to treat a pinched nerve or upper back pain?
Hello Melanie,
Yes, acupuncture is very effective for pain. A thorough exam will provide the acupuncturist with a diagnosis and then they will be able to determine your treatment plan and effectiveness.
Hope all goes well,
