Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I am interested in hearing about peoples experiences with acupuncture treatments. Anything you want to share such as sensations during treatment, what you sought treatment for, results, etc. This information is just for my own personal curiosity. I am interested in learning more about acupuncture and have read several books and have received treatments myself and am just curious about other peoples experiences. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 I, so far, have an AMAZING experience after only 11 sessions (11 weeks) I am 32. For 3 years I had aweful mentsrual issues that came out of nowhere! I bled all the times, horrible cramps, heavy periods...spotting and cramping in between. I gained 20 pounds (I was 115 pounds and FIT!)...5 gyno's could not help me. I went on 4 different birth control pills, was mis-diagnosed at one point with PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) I even went to a famous GYNO in Beverly Hills who wrote a book. I went off the pill, tried natural progesterone cream.... Then I found out I had a very small, submucous fibroid and a uterine polyp. I RAN to a VERY old-school chinese acupunturist (been doing it since 1965 AND she was a gyno in Shanghai...she had saved my friends uterus once)... After 11 sessions and herbs, and stopping the progesterone cream (and did not change anything else about my life)... For the first time in 3 years...I had 2 NORMAL menses and the rest of the month was amazing...no bloating, no mid-cycle spotting and cramping... She has, so far changed my life around. I even pushed back my follow-up ultrasound - because I am hoping she got rid of the firbroid! Anyway...I swear by this woman and have had such amazing results that it's kind of insane!! I ask questions on this board sometimes...because my Acupuncturist is SOO old- school and has a very blunt-like bedside manner...I never ask her details about acupunture itself or what she is doing to me etc.... But the results are amazing so far. we'll see...it's only been two cycles...I hope to report more success! elle acupuncture , " taniaonthesea " <taniaonthesea wrote: > > I am interested in hearing about peoples experiences with acupuncture > treatments.
