"What GPs... need, is better access for their patients to alternative, non-pharmacological treatments, which can be patchy across the country."
#Acupuncture is now officially recommended in the UK by #NICE for the #treatment of #chronic #pain, #migraines and #headaches. Acupuncture also regularly outperforms usual care/conventional treatment for a range of other conditions in both effectiveness and safety. GPs should therefore consider referring more patients for acupuncture to help reduce overprescribing and take the pressure off the #NHS. GPs can refer to practitioners accredited the professional organisations in their country, such as #Zhong or #NVA in The Netherlands.
