According to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative HealthTrusted Source, acupuncture can help soothe neck and lower back pain and discomfort due to osteoarthritis and knee pain. 

People might also benefit from the effects of acupuncture if they have migraine headaches. 

Medicare Part B currently funds up to 12 sessions of acupuncture treatment for those with chronic lower back pain. The insured individual will need to pay 20% of the fee that Medicare approves for coverage.
