Chronic pain patient, 47 Persistent neck pain despite exercise 10 weeks
She had tried exercise alone with limited relief for persistent neck pain. We added acupuncture twice weekly for four weeks alongside gentle cervical mobility and breathing work to reduce muscle guarding around the upper shoulders.
Pain scores on a 0 to 10 scale dropped from 6 to 2 over ten weeks. She returned to weekly yoga classes and sleeps through the night without neck waking her. She now uses acupuncture monthly for maintenance during stressful periods.
