Painful Acupuncture - Health, Fitness, and Sports

A license/permit, and years of experience do not automatically equal skill in doing a procedure. She has obviously had years of practice at doing it the wrong way. It is possible that no one else has complained because the other patients may not have been to other acupuncture practitioners, so they may not realize that she is doing it wrong. Since she is doing it wrong, don't have her do it again. Have someone else do it.

I have bad knees myself, and may eventually try it. I did try injections, but they didn't help. I do get some help from some supplements I am taking, but would like even more help than that. I have heard of a new process that is not available yet. They inject some kind of gel into the joint to replace the stuff you are missing. I think it helps to at least partially restore the joint cushion. There is another treatment that is available, that I believe injects hyluronic acid into the joint. I may try that soon. I had planned on eventually having knee replacement surgery, but my research came across the fact that people who have this done are at greater risk of strokes from blood clots breaking free from the surgery site. That makes me nervous. I would prefer to try the other treatments first.

I hope you find someone better to administer your treatments.

A Different Drummer

If a man does not keep pace with his companions,
Perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.
Let him step to the music which he hears,
However measured, or far away.
