Does acupuncture help much with back pains caused by large breasts?

Maybe : The first thing to try is a sports bra, and good posture. Many women with large breasts slouch to hide their breast. This, and not the breast weight is responsible for much of the the back pain. Core strengthening by walking with chest out and back straight for a few weeks may be all you need. Weight loss if you have extra weight, can substantially reduce breast size. Acupuncture is expensive.

See below: Although the acupuncture is likely to help alleviate your back pain - it won't solve the underlying problem - so the pain will eventually return.
