what do you think of acupuncture treatment? in taiwan i did acupuncture treatment and took herbal medicine for my insomnia. it helped me calm down. it didnt necessarily help me sleep any better, now im back in america and taking a higher dosage of herbal medicine for sleep, the thing about this type of treatment is that its safe, but slow. its not dangerous and quick like taking drugs for sleep. the doctor told me that treatment has to be consistent and that it may take 2-3 months or half a year to show recovery signs and its true, herbs take longer to treat illnesses and conditions. what do you think? have u done acupuncture and found it beneficial for your health? the doctor would insert 10-15 needles each time for helping me with my sleep and there was also a massage therapist. usually you lay there with the needles inside you for 20 minutes but since i have severe insomnia, sometimes i laid there for 30minutes or 35minutes p.s. i also heard a lady tell me that she also did acupuncture and took herbal medicine to treat her arthritis and it took her a year and a half of consistent treatment for her to get well.

Have you ever experienced a "blue light" during the start of an acupuncture treatment? What causes it? I have recently had an acupuncture treatment after having my first set about 18 months ago. When the acupuncturist turned off the light and my eyes were closed, I noticed a blue light around the edges of the black darkness from having my eyes shut. I thought it was all in my head, but I forgot about it and when I went into this treatment, the same thing happened. Is this some kind of energy flow? The closest answer I found was people discussing blue light during meditation.... I appreciate any personal insights as well as the "technical" reasons behind this phenomenon. Thanks.

How does acupuncture work as an analgesic I understand the whole energy thing about acupuncture and to me, it's a lot like Reiki, and I'm not so sure I believe in stabilizing the body's energy flow. However, I recently went for an acupuncture treatment to write a paper on alternative therapies, and I actually got muscular pain relief from the needling. I didn't tell the practitioner that I had pain in both calves, just the left one. She treated just the left calf along with the energy alignment stuff. The right calf was still sore after treatment, but the left calf was pain free. Later that night, the tops of my feet were numb. How does needling promote analgesia?
