Accupuncture

[Cazz]

Has anyone ever received/undergone accupunture for stress?

What do you think did it help? Could it have been placebo effect? Doesn't really matter if you have had good or bad experience of this please let me know.

Thanks

Yes a lot a long time ago from Giles when he was at ED Therapy Rooms - it's very relaxing 'me' time and he is a very good listener so hard to say - like a lot of alternative therapies it's probably more placebo than science - but can highly recommend him nevertheless.

Never tried it for stress but acupuncture helped with migraines and delivered an almost instant relief from the pain of a frozen shoulder. I believe there is a scientific basis above & beyond the placebo effect.

Not sure about impact on psychological / stress issues - but worth a try.

I'm surprised to hear you say that. I felt sure you would be worried about breaches to the hull...

True - but I'm not totally watertight.
