Western medical acupuncture stimulates the nervous system, which causes the body to produce endorphins and other natural substances that can relieve pain. 

Western medical acupuncture can be used to help promote and speed up recovery if you have a injured muscle or tendon. It may also be offered as a form of pain relief.
