Summary

This study tested a non-drug approach for people with long-term sciatica and sleep problems. Sixty-six adults received either standard acupuncture or acupuncture plus a special laser treatment delivered through a vein. The goal was to see if adding the laser could improve sleep quality and reduce pain better than acupuncture alone.
