pattricia Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Saw a great programme last night on T.V. about acupuncture.Ive always believed in it,because about 10 years ago I used to suffer from migraine.After three visits to an acupuncturist,Ive never had one since.Thought this might help people who are thinking of seeing one.

lizzmobile Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Yes, Pattricia, I saw this. It was very interesting. That woman with the smoking treatment got me the most, along with the anaesthetic-free open heart surgery! Incredible. I also have migraines now and then, and can usually pinpoint the cause but I might look into it further. They can be really incapacitating at times .Thanks for that!

Yes,lizzmobile, I actually walked into the Acupuncturist with a raging Migraine, and walked out without one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Maiden Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 my mum is currently having accupuncture to stop smoking. I spoke to her after her first session and she went from smoking forty a day to four...Still waiting for updates on the rest. I had accupuncture for stress once. I don't know if it was the needle in me ear or the calm relaxing music or the herbal tea that made me feel chilled tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_jim Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 I have accupuncture to help with high blood pressure. It was very successful in finally clearing eczma that I used to get on my hands when I was stressed. Also had accupuncture for pain in a bad back which was very good for pain relief, then move on to physio to strengthen the back. I'd recommend it.

Zafar Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Can anyone recommend a good accupuncturist ? My mother suffers from knee pains, but I imagine there's a lot of charlatan's out there pretending to be accupuncturists. Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samc Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 I have had it for a dodgy knee after an accident. It was impressive and done via my doctors. But they don't advise it if you have a thing about needles because the tension you create from your fear is not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
