  2. The use of needles in acupuncture has been the negative side of that. Thanks to this new research achievement.

  3. I first had acupuncture treatment for depression in the 70′s. At that stage, the world was grey & everything I saw was dismal when I walked into the clinic. When I came out, the world was shining and everyone looked happy. Two Shen points, that was all!! I’ve never taken pills for the same since. I’m amazed that I encountered a lot of hostility from doctors and government departments because of this. I love acupuncture & such treatments. Such love isn’t an addiction as some suggest.

  4. Same for me! Acupuncture helps. After 8 years of suffering I felt better very quickly, now I am fine since without meds :) IT WORKS!

  5. May i ask you how often did you need to have it?

  6. @oinkysqueak u moron.
