    I had physio for sciatica, and the physio suggested she did acupuncture following one of the sessions. Told her I didn’t really have much faith in it but if she thought there was any chance of it helping then I’d give it a try.

    I was amazed that it helped immediately and I continued pain free for about 2 weeks.

    You have heard of the "Ice Man"? The mummy that was freeze dried over 5000 yrs ago and found when a glacier was melting on a mt. top. He was found to have tattoos (dots) that marked acupuncture points in his lumbar to treat his degenerated discs.
    This is proof that it has been around for 1000s of years and started in the most technologically advanced society in human history! When I can find some one who is a true Pro I plan to try it. for my back and neck.

    Its always worth a try – I have never tried it but have used a chiropractor and it worked

    I personally have not had it done, but I have heard from alot of people that it is amazing. I don’t see what harm it could do.

    I have a damaged sciatic nerve due to a herniated disc compressing it. I will not go anywhere near a chiropractor, but i would absolutely be comfortable seeing an accupuncturist.
