  1. I posted this once, but apparently didn't do it right. My question
    is:

    I'm starting acupuncture for low back pain. I've had the pain since
    January. I can't sit in a chair. It's had a very serious effect on
    my life.

    I'm wondering about how many treatments it will take for me to know
    whether or not it is working for me. I'm not expecting a miracle
    cure, but I should at least be able to feel some improvement in a
    reasonable amount of time. The treatments are quite expensive. They
    will be worth every penny if they work, but it's a lot of money to me.
    I just wondered how many I should get if they don't seem to be
    helping.

    I've tried just about everything else. I'm praying this will be the
    answer.

    Thanks

  2. Sorry,
    I can't help you as i have practically no experience or knowledge of
    acupuncture.--rb

  3. One! You will know after the first. If after 3 sessions you are not sure
    then go somewhere else.

    My accupuncturinst charges $30 for half an hour each session I have never
    heard of over $50 per session.

    Seems to me that you should feel some better after the first one.

    Please, PLEASE! Post your proof that the person has "never" been to an
    acupuncturist. If you do not, then it looks like YOU, ILSA, are the steamy
    one.

    Tools, one can't prove a negative, you incontinent pinhead.
    The steam and the flies are Gym Bob's, unless you've brought some with you.

    Unless she was asking for your help specifically, there was no reason
    for you to create a posting that says "I don't know." She's no better
    off for your having done so.
