Acupuncture

Acupuncture can really help with osteochondrosis.This is explained by the fact that there are many active points on the spine that can be influenced by needles.The degenerative processes in the intervertebral discs lead to the fact that the vessels and nerve endings are squeezed, resulting in the so -called trigger points - painful and knit seals.This is the presence of such points that are associated with back pain characteristic of osteochondrosis.These points are very sensitive to mechanical influence.Therefore, by introducing needles into triggering points, you can relieve stress and relieve pain.

Unlike many other treatments, acupuncture is left to do even during exacerbation and intense pain.This method of treatment has virtually no contraindications, it does not provoke side effects (such as allergies, as with the use of drug treatment).
