  1. How would they have done that back in old China on women? I''ve seen the "lady dolls" at antique
    shows that were used for pointing out troubled body parts by females to their male "doctors".. So
    did they work the needles through their clothes?

    This was not the universal condition for acupuncture throughout China. Over 3000 years, things have
    changed. Sometimes, puritanical beliefs may have lead to needling through clothing or pointing to
    problems on a lady doll.

    This is not the experience of most of the women and certainly not how it is practiced today.
