I am currently using acupuncture. It has been good for me. Some days it is more effective than other. Unfortunately, the pain relief seems to only last for the duration of the treatment, but the emotional help it has been along with my acupuncturist and the herbs I am taking are definitely worth it.

Big help to release muscle knots in lower back and bum when I had made no improvement ~8 months after my initial injury. Started me on the road to being able to do proper rehab.
Side effects - painful! Sore at the time, and also for a few days after. Make sure you have someone to drive you home and that you can go and lie in bed the rest of the day - I looked like I had had a stroke the first few times as could barely walk and was in severe pain. Totally worth it though!
