who's done it? what for? did you get the results you were hoping for?

    I've had it for eczema - out of control, weepy eczema - and it cleared it right up. I also had it for asthma but it didn't help for that.

    I had it done for asthma that was out of control with a bout of pneumonia, and it worked beautifully and very quickly. I was amazed!

    Had it done for eczema and it didn't help. Looks like I'm exactly opposite pattycakes! Interesting!

    I get acupuncture plus massage at least once a month for overall health maintenance and stress reduction. I originally sought out Chinese medicine to assist me with chronic migraines. I have gone from having migraines approx every other day to 1-2 times a month. I highly recommend it!

    done it for the heck of it at first, won 3 free sessions, fell IN LOVE and continued for a few more. later on I developed some back pain and holy cow, it worked and I couldn't be happier. I also got a treatment a few days before my wedding, got pebbles put on stress pressure points in my ears and wow, I was calm as a cucumber, LOVED it! but seriously, I could barely walk one day, got in last minute, spent a while, admittedly, had some cupping done too (so weird!), left in more pain than I went in with, but woke up the next morning (14 hours after treatment ended) with ZERO pain!

    I had it for limited range of motion following shoulder reconstruction. I had great results and broke through a plateau I was stuck at. A couple of caveats -- the guy who did it, Dr. Lee, was an MD who had been raised to be a traditional Chinese doctor and was part of the University of Pittsburgh sports medicine center. Make sure you find someone who is legitimate, there are tons of bad practitioners and strip mall quacks out there.
