Hi Jenn, I have not tryed acupuncture, but I do know someone that has arthritis & fibro, and she says it has helped her a lot , however she also said that the first 4 made her worse, after that it really helped and can last for her, up 2 a month. I looked into it and just did not have the money to go where she was going.

I’m so glad you are getting at least some relief  
Hugs & blessings

Hi Jenn. I've heard that acupuncture will last longer after awhile of getting it. I envy you and wish you the very best with it. Please keep us posted on your progress.

I just found this study from the National Institute of Health that says acupuncture can help reduce chronic pain by as much as 50 percent. I've always wanted to try it, this is a good incentive to make the commitment!
