Abstract

Chronic pain impacts the ability of children to function similarly to their peers. Because most of their pain is long-term, conventional medicinal treatment may become expensive. Therefore, healthcare providers recommend unconventional medicine, such as acupuncture, as a safe and cost-effective treatment. However, less is known about the effectiveness of acupuncture in a pediatric population with a range of pain diagnoses. We hypothesized that pain and quality-of-life would not differ between patients with only pain and patients with pain and medical diagnoses.
