I have recently started to explore the ancient Chinese treatment of acupuncture.  I was referred to this method of treatment by my primary care physician (imagine that).  I found a local practitioner that is only blocks from the house.  (http://eastwestom.com/)  I am learning alot and seeing some progress.  I will keep you posted on the experience.

Update – I have had 3 treatments now and I think that it is actually doing something.  It is very hard to tell, however I have had an issue for the last 2 years of my hands going to sleep at night.  This seems to be improving with the treatments to my shoulders.  This after a year of Chiropractic that didn’t really help the problem and a hand specialist that told me it was carpal tunnel.  It seems now that the problem stems from muscle tension in my neck and shoulders.  The acupuncture is helping to release the tension in the muscles.  I will continue with treatment and keep everyone updated.
