Hi Hon.

My husband had acupuncture years ago. I will never forget him getting off the table a new person. He said "omg, this is fantastic". He went for a few months. I remember it very well because one of the appointments he had to cancel was on 9/11. One doesn't forget that day. He did acupuncture until it no longer helped him. But for a few months he had great improvement. He has neuropathy in his feet and for whatever reason, the acupuncture helped him.

Take care

Melody
