Reducing Post Operative Pain Using Acupuncture

Post-surgical trauma contributes to pain and affects three-quarters of all post-op patients. The pain is often moderate to severe, and doctors frequently customise patients’ pain medications to manage their pain and limit the side effects of certain drugs. To potentially reduce the use of painkillers and mitigate these side effects, acupuncture can be used to ease the pain. By integrating acupuncture into pain management strategies, may help limit the reliance on medications and their associated side effects. This approach is supported by the findings in “The Efficacy of Acupuncture in Post-Operative Pain Management: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis”.¹
