acupuncture is proposed to work for 25 (approx) different medical ailments
evidence lacks for most things though
however there is some evidence (albeit conflicting) that it can work for pain. it may depend.
what i can say if you believe it may work, (positive expectations) it is linked with greater odds ration of working
what type of pain are you talking about if i may ask?

@yeronlyman muscle spasms all over my body, mostly neck and shoulders. I don’t have any diseases that I’m aware of.

@Fallflower i would recommend a physican review first
many causes of muscles spasms, and because they are general not local, you need to have a general check up including bloods etc...
after that, looking at sleep, stress, diet and exercise
see a physical therapist for a plan of care after medical checkup

@yeronlyman I have not seen a neurologist.. with the physiologist I’m guessing he’s gonna say hi and ask a lot of questions. Probably not conducting any nerves on the first appointment? No idea what that is hehe 😜
