Thumbs up

I have had RSD for 5+ years and have been getting acupuncture for nearly the complete time.. not once has it caused me a flare of any type... in fact it's one of the few things that ease my pain...chiropractic adjustments being the other.

The needles used in acupuncture are so very thin that the puncture hole that it leaves is very tiny. I have had over 100 needles in me at once... (don't worry...that's an exception instead of the norm regarding acupunture)

REMEMBER...we are all different and none of us will respond the same to any treatment or medicines...

The decision has to be yours as to if you try this or not... for me... it relieves the spasms, cramping, and calms the pain signals. I often notice immediate color changes and warming of my skin.

I wish you the best!!
