Acupuncture for Joint Pain
Arthritis and osteoarthritis cause progressive joint cartilage deterioration, chronic pain, and functional limitation. Acupuncture works through multiple mechanisms: reducing synovial inflammation, modulating inflammatory mediators such as interleukin-1 and TNF-α, and activating the body's natural analgesic pathways.
