Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators will evaluate the comparative effectiveness and safety of Motion Style Acupuncture Treatment (MSAT) therapy for acute neck pain compared to acupuncture.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a multi-center, randomized, controlled, comparative effectiveness clinical trial for acute neck pain. Motion style acupuncture requires a part of the patient's body to move passively or actively while acupuncture needles are retained.
