Re: TCH Acupuncture update for joint pain

Thanks for sharing this.

I had horrendous mid back pain for years, up to 10 Advil per day. Six visits and the pain was gone. It started coming back a couple years later and another acupuncture visit eliminated the pain.


I did not realize the effect Advil could have on my kidneys. They retain sodium and elevate blood pressure.

Acupuncture treats the whole person, body, mind and spirit.

Most licensed acupuncturists I know have way more experience. Some are educated at the doctorate level and intern with hospitals - just like MDs. Acupuncture is a growing field of knowledge. More physicians are learning the theory and incorporating TCM into their own practices.

I'm very pleased that you are feeling better. It must be such a relief.
