Acupuncture for Intervertebral Lumbar Disc Prolapse: Case Studies and Clinical Experience

Intervertebral lumbar disc prolapse is a very common disease in our clinic, especially among 20 to 50 year olds. Most do not need surgery and there are many effective conservative treatments, of which acupuncture is one of the best. In our clinic we have treated hundreds of cases of this kind and have found acupuncture to be outstandingly effective. Here we present two typical cases followed by some clinical notes based on our own experience.
