Does acupuncture work?

I was a skeptic at first until I finally tried it. I went in for a relaxation treatment and when one needle was put in my arms just dropped and my whole body relaxed it was fantastic.

different pepl have different thoughts about it. modern science says that acupuncture works by releasing a kind of anesthesia in body which however is not accepted by the acupuncturist at all.its period depends upon the intensity of ur disease and kind of disease.acupuncture started in china is usually advised to be done by needles but again different pepl have different thoughts

I have not used to Acupuncture. But Acupressure works best. you can try this.

yes it works. Your body is made up of water, muscles, tissues and bones with nerves laced throughout the system. The nerves are connected at junction points called meridians. When energy gets stuck in a meridian or gets detoured along a nerve, communication with the brain, to the effected part of the body, is stopped. Acupuncture re-connects the communication between the brain and effected parts of the body. The results of the acupuncture will last as long as you don't block the energy a second time. Imagine the pipes in your house becoming blocked with minerals. Somewhere in your house you won't get water. Then imagine a tool that will send a serge of mineral cleaner through the pipes to open it up again. That's what acupuncture does. The problem is we reclog the pipes with our thoughts, beliefs, and fears. Yes we do it to ourselves. When we block the nerves the second time we have to get another treatment to unblock the nerve or meridian. This can go on and on for months if we have created a goal that blocks the treatments. Humans are strange that way.

Does it work - yes Is it the best alternative - depends on the cause you want a cure for. If it is pain pick up a book to help yourself (with or without help) called The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies.
