(good for people you perceive with emotional issues that they don't want to deal with) " (2) " Over the next few days, notice if your perception of the pain changes, that means we are getting at the problem. " (3) " Because you are an (athlete, dentist, psychologist, policeman, unemployed) you really seem to understand what the needles are doing. Some patients just think that I have a single magic point for (backache, headaches, hemorrhoids, depression). I think you really get that Chinese Medicine is a process " (4) " I think of as a boat that the two of us are going to get on and take a little journey " L.Ac. acupuncture & herbs safe, compassionate care 1823 Wilshire Blvd. #610 Santa Monica, CA 90403 310 264-9197 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
