First seen Apr 08, 2026 · Last updated May 02, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study looks at whether combining acupuncture with Chinese herbal fumigation can reduce pain and improve daily function in people with chronic neck pain. About 120 adults aged 18 to 65 with neck pain lasting at least 3 months will receive five treatment sessions over three weeks. The goal is to see if the combination works better than acupuncture alone or with a fake herbal treatment.
