Relieving Pain with a Little Poke
The Grace Study wants to know how well acupuncture can relieve your pain. (This ancient Chinese therapy has been used to relieve pain since days of old.) How well your pain is relieved, is unique to you. In general, the pain relieving capacity of acupuncture increases during the period of active use.
The Grace Study is one of only two studies in the country recruiting persons with Sickle Cell Anemia to study the benefits of acupuncture for pain relief. If you are assigned to an acupuncture group, you will receive 10 free sessions. This can be an addition to your pain regimen and will not compete with or prevent you from receiving adequate care.
Your participation aids the study of pain therapies for people with Sickle Cell.
