Default Re: Thoughts on, and Experiences with - Acupuncture

The philosophy behind chinese medicine is great I think, acupuncture is about activating the bodies already there healing powers (as explained to me by the acupuncturist) which strikes me as quite smart, especially in comparison to what the last doctor did which was give me a lot of anti inflamatory medicine.

so your last doctor gave you an anti-inflammatory, something which we know will reduce pain and swelling, but it sounds much smarter to poke yourself with needles to activate your body's mystical healing powers?
