Abstract
Objective: to evaluate the relationship between pain intensity, physical disability and quality of life after auriculoacupuncture and cupping therapy with satisfaction with treatment, need for it to control pain, perception of improvement and medication consumption. Method: cross-sectional study conducted with 198 people with chronic back pain. The following were investigated: pain intensity, physical disability, quality of life, satisfaction with treatment, need for intervention to control pain, perception of improvement and medication consumption. Spearman's correlation was performed at 5% of significance. Results: There were low magnitude negative correlations of pain intensity and physical disability with treatment satisfaction, need for intervention, perception of improvement after treatment and medication consumption, and low magnitude positive correlations of quality of life perception with satisfaction with treatment, need for intervention, and perception of improvement. Conclusion: The improvement in pain intensity, physical disability and quality of life resulted in better general health status, satisfaction with treatment and lower consumption of medication among study participants.
