At World Congress of Pain held in Montréal: Acupuncture for Pain
At the recent World Congress of Pain held in Montréal, Canada, acupuncture emerged as a standout feature in a multitude of presentations. While I plan to delve into the specific studies in a subsequent post, I’d like to share a noteworthy observation here.
In the realm of physical therapies, acupuncture proved to be the undisputed frontrunner regarding the volume of studies presented at the congress. A striking 14 abstracts on acupuncture were showcased, compared to a mere 4 for physiotherapy, 1 for osteopathy, and none for chiropractic.
This disparity underscores the growing interest and attention that the scientific community is directing toward acupuncture, setting it apart from other treatment modalities.

Hi Dr. Vitalis
I wanted to know where you searched the information about this. I tried to find it in the World Congress of Pain web page but I couldn´t.
Thank you very much,
From Spain,
