A 61-year-old woman presents with constant lower back pain which has she has had for many years. She takes painkillers every morning for it. MRI shows spinal stenosis, recommended treatment by consultants is steroid injection, if this is unsuccessful they recommend surgery.
We do one Ah Shi treatment for Lower Back Pain.
Feedback from the patient a week later at follow-up: the pain nearly disappeared the day after the treatment. She hasn’t needed a painkiller since has been able to exercise and lead a normal life. She is thrilled!
Every acupuncturist should be able to achieve results such as this repeatedly and confidently.
We have quite a few other cases in lower back pain such as this one as described below.
A 25-year-old man presents with acute lower back pain from lifting free weights at the gym. He has very little mobility, the pain is constant, rated 10/10. He has seen an osteopath who suspected a slipped disc and recommended an MRI. We do an Ah Shi treatment.
At follow-up 3 days later, the pain is 50% better. He is able to sleep and move around. The patient is relieved as it is obviously not a disc injury and the MRI is not necessary. We do another Ah Shi treatment.
At follow-up 4 days later, he reports the pain is 95% gone.
