Abstract
This review paper presents acupuncture cases and treatment protocols derived from classical and contemporary approaches to low back pain. Chapter forty-one from the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Medicine is structured to present a classical approach to the treatment of back pain. These treatment approaches are contrasted with a more contemporary style as exhibited by Yang Jiasan. Case histories are woven from China's leadng acupuncture scholars and practitioners, these personal accounts bringing theories to life. To futher substantiate theoretical expositions, recent clinical trials, systematic reviews and meta-analysis follow. The compilation of varied information will provide what is necessary to validate the widespread use of acupuncture in the treatment of back pain for those who may benefit.
