Daneene I am fortunate enough to have a primary care physician who is a medically (and traditionally) trained acupuncturist. He is of Korean descent but was trained in this country so I feel as if I'm getting the best of both eastern & western medicine. Acupuncture works for me and from what I've heard, it works for everyone who " lets it. " In other words, you have to believe in it to begin with. I went in one day with a lot of pain in my neck and walked out 45 min. later with virtually no pain at all. My health insurance does pay for the acupuncture, maybe because my doc is an M.D., don't know for sure. I hope this helps. Steve K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 I have tried it. It id not help me. Even when i was there. I could not feel it when they were doing it. maybe it is just harder to work on me. my insurance did not pay for it. glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 I don't think you have to believe in it for it to work. Animals don't " believe " in it and it works for them. In fact it was invented in China as a veterinary medical treatment. You do however, have to give it time to work, and have enough appointments to allow it to correct the problem. If you have an ongoing problem you have to remember it took time to get messed up, it also takes time to heal. A lot of people for whom it doesn't work only have one or two treatments and pronounce it a failure.
