I've been seeing an acupuncturist for a week and a half and boy do I feel relief. Several people I know have had success with Charlotte, the acupuncturist, and when I grew tired of a chronic pain I've been treating unsuccessfully with Vicodin since August, I decided to make a visit to Charlotte. Twice weekly I relax on her table and experience 20 or so needles placed all over my body. With deep breathing, I find myself sleeping and wake up totally relaxed and pain free. Charlotte says that after this Friday I may be down to one visit a week. But I don't care, I'd go everyday if I could feel this good. I just got home from my appointment with her and I'm ready to go dancing.
Last week I was on my stomach with needles all over the back side of my body. The only one that hurt was the needle in my calf. She kept twisting it and I felt a "nerve" feeling. I guess she hit the right spot.
I'm glad I can't see the needles in my head, which is usually three, because I'm sure it looks freaky.
Thanks Charlotte for helping me deal with the pain. I'll be back Friday.
