Same here.
I know one guy who swears it is the only thing that keeps his back pain at bay.

No personal experience, but I was surprsed to learn that most accupuncturists in the US are MD's. Go for it.

i guess if it works for you thats fine.
you can also save a person who is choking by shoving your thumb up their ass but i would rather give them the heimlich maneuver.

IMO, it's placebo - but placebo can be very effective for some people.

Chinese MD's? Every Chinese person I knew in grad school was an MD, but they knew as much about Western medicine as a first semester or first year (being generous here) med student in the US.

My father in law is a vet that does it. I have seen dogs that can't walking in, leave running.

I don't think they are faking it.

His laser treatments are even better. I have tried those and they are incredible.
