Acupuncture really is amazing. I do massage therapy at an acupuncurist's office and I see the change in people.
I used to have severe asthma and had tried ALL the Western medicine remedies. Nothing worked; I had bronchitis every month and was sick half the time. It was getting in the way of school and I was miserable. I finally went to an acupuncurist. Within a month, I had no more asthma attacks. After a few more months, I stopped getting sick all the time. I stopped having breathing problems and was able to start singing again. (I'm a singer) For 7 years I was symptom free. I didn't do any kind of "maintenance" which is recommended. I should have gone back once or twice a year probably, but didn't always do that. When I was in NYC I worked in a hideously smoky bar. The asthma and bronchitis came back, but stopped again once I resumed acupuncture treatments. Amazing stuff.
