If you have ever had acupuncture, you would know it is not nuts and that it works very well and effectively for specific situations. It is also not harmful to the soldiers, but clearly helpful and effective. We want the best and most effective for our soldiers and not see them come home addicted to a drug. If they are addicted to acupuncture this will be a great thing for them.

If it works for our soldiers I say absolutely YES!

Agreed. I have used it (actually accupressure) for anti-nausea and the effect is dramatic. Others in my family have had equally striking results with actual acupuncture for various kinds of pain..

Some people are parochial and closed minded when it comes to other systems, even when something potentially beneficial to them exists there.
