How Lower Back Pain Treatment Works
Lower back pain treatment combines acupuncture (for neural, systemic, and constitutional drivers), dry needling (for lumbar paraspinal trigger points and gluteal referral patterns), and often moxibustion (warming therapy that penetrates deeply into cold-type chronic lower back pain). Specific Chinese medical patterns — Kidney Yang Deficiency (cold, achy chronic LBP), Bi Syndrome (weather-sensitive, arthritic pain), or Blood Stasis (sharp, stabbing, fixed pain after injury) — guide point selection.
