How it works
Stimulates descending pain inhibitory pathways via opioid, serotonin, and noradrenaline release. Reduces local muscle tension and inflammatory mediators. Central sensitisation modulation may explain durability of effects.
Course of 6–10 sessions typically required. Effects may not persist indefinitely — maintenance sessions may be needed. Evidence stronger for chronic than acute LBP.
