How effective is Acupuncture to heal a right shoulder pain ?

I am seriously considering starting to have “acupuncture sessions”. I am sick and tired of medicines (and even working out in the gym isn’t helping). If you have gone through these sessions, can you tell me what exactly the needle in your body does in order to take away the pain ?

    If helps block pain receptors and stimulates blood to the area to help heal the pain. I would try massage first I get one about twice a month to help with shoulder and neck pain from acar accident. Accupuncture will not help you if it is a problem with the bones.

    Works in a similar fashion to a mother-in-law when she needles you into forgetting the love you have for your man. Thankfully it only works that way for a moment. Real acupuncture works in a similar fashion in that it can interrupt the nerves that transmit pain and feelings. Then your muscles can relax from clenching from pain and you will feel better.
