    It depends on who you ask -- I know of a guy who claims he can cure
    hair loss with it. Nope.

    However, it can be useful for treating pain, among other things.

    Acupuncture works to correct imbalances, which all diseases have. And yes it
    can work with other forms of medicine.

    Yes, it has. It may have originally come from India, East Africa, or even
    Europe.

    Yes, they can. This is called Complementary Medicine.

    Cure is a pretty loaded word. Acupuncture is good for insomnia, constipation,
    headaches, back/knee/hip pain, and many other conditions. For more
    information, check the yellow pages and consult a licensed acupuncturist in
    your area.

    It is also good for impulse control disorders, incontinence, and
    moodswings....hint, hint, Med(S)tools.

    Hey IIsa9,

    Shallow minded(on medicine) people like you only believe accupuncture
    is damm fantastic!

    Hey, to control 'impulse control disorder, incontinence and moodswing,
    you don't have to go thru those poking needles that breed pain and
    blood!!! There are other simple alternatives ie. finger accupressuring
    and etc...

    Your suggestion reflect your standard in handling mankind's sickness!

    Hey IIsa9,

    Why must you recommend people overhere, in treating a simple sickness
    with 'complicated' method such as, accupuncturing of going thru
    needles and breeding blood!!!
    Hey, there are other simplier alternatives in tackling those
    sicknesses that you had mentioned.

    Maybe, you are not knowledgeable enough to manage pain!

    Well, if its pain and bleeding that concern you, then rest easy, partner.
    Acupuncture is usually painless and very seldom painful. Bleeding is not a
    common thing, at least amongst the American acupuncturists I'm acquainted with.

    Your posts reflect your state of mind....quite petty and not pretty!
