ChatGPT Spills: Pain Relief Without the Pills

Ever wondered what brings most people to an acupuncturist?
I asked ChatGPT, and without hesitation it spilled: PAIN. Back pain, migraines, shoulder tension, arthritis… you name it, it’s walked through our clinic doors.

The TCM Take

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), pain is often caused by qi and blood stagnation — think of this like a traffic jam in the body. When the normal flow through the meridians is blocked, pain can show up in different ways: sharp, dull, throbbing, tight, or achy.

How Acupuncture Helps

Acupuncture works by restoring qi and blood circulation through the meridian system. It helps get things moving again while also helping to regulate and reduce muscular tightness and inflammatory processes.

So whether your pain is from an old injury, a stress flare-up, or something you’ve “just put up with” for years — acupuncture doesn’t just hide the pain, it works on the root cause.
