YES!! Please try it with her. I have seen great improvement with acupuncture and Chinese herbals. Some patients take both. Some stay away from herbs b/c of certain medications they are taking. For some patients, it can take a series of treatments. It's best to consult a licensed acupuncturist in person. If $$ is an issue, I'd also recommend looking for a local
acupuncture school.

Hi,

While some people end up benefitting/enjoying acupuncture & Oriental medicine, thus so receiving it throughout their life, it is NOT required to continue forever. It's about finding balance in the body & feeling better. That could be a one time treatment or a series of sessions. It's difficult to say how long it could take with out meeting you in person & seeing your
health history. However, if acupuncture works for you, you just might find yourself coming back for more. Please remember, we're not all the same. Ask about credentials and other training & experience. Look for the one that is right for you.
