The Treatment of Low Back Pain Using Classical Needle Techniques Combined With Modern Motor Points

Acupuncture is an ever-evolving treatment method, with thousands of years of clinical practice in which practitioners have always worked to improve their knowledge of the body, disease processes and treatment methods. This paper presents a clinically effective strategy that integrates the theories of the sinew channels (jing jin) and needling methods from the Huang Di Nei Jing (Yellow Emperor’s Internal Classic) with modern knowledge of myofascial anatomy and motor points. Although this strategy is framed in this article in terms of the treatment of low back pain, it can effectively be applied to other parts of the body.
