One time, I was bashed into a wall when my horse threw me, and I went straight from the barn to acupuncture. I was hurting on the way in, and pain free on the way out. Placebo, schmacebo.
But even if there were no therapeutic effects, I would continue to go because it's so relaxing. Better than Xanax (not that I've ever had xanax, but I think it's some kind of sedative).
One acupuncture guy I see says it's most effective for treating back pain. Whatever -- I love it.
