I was skeptical about accupuncture but circumstances kind of forced me there.
All I can say is there is something to it.
When a needle hits what I call a hotpot, I will wince. Am a bit of a needlephobe.
I was a strong skeptic but took my beloved Labrador Retriever who had cancer to an holistic veterinarian in Greensboro. He loved her on sight, she got down in the floor with him, gave him hugs. He settled down beside her and she discreetly began to put the acupuncture needles into him, he looked like a pincushion down his back but never flinched, no indication that he felt a thing, he just thought she was petting him. When they were removed he got up and clearly felt much better. No reason for a dog to lie. I took him back to her numerous times over the remainder of his life. It certainly was cheap enough, $25.00 per visit. He never failed to practically bounce out of there. Im a believer now. No clue how it works or why, but it does.
