How it works
Stimulates endogenous opioid release, reduces inflammatory cytokines locally and systemically. May modulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis to reduce stress-driven disease activity.
Evidence specifically for RA is limited compared to OA. Should not replace DMARD therapy. Avoid joint injections with acupuncture during active flares. Choose AHPRA-registered practitioner.
