This is a great question. Just now, I have been searching posts for acupuncture-related posts. I have been considering it too because I would really like to med-free...I don't how much it costs either. If you get any info, let me know. Thanks!

Like all things, your location will affect the cost of the service, but here in Oregon it is 40 an hour...after the big first appointment which is 200-300.

I haven't been to acupuncturist in so long, but I think works. It really helped me after a big car wreck.

I think I paid about $60/visit. This was several years ago, and it was for infertility not fibro. I've been thinking about going back for the fibro & headaches, because it actually did feel kind of good after the initial 'weird' feeling. There were one or two spots he'd stick the needle in & I'd feel something almost like an electric shock/current go up my leg & spine. He said that was a good thing, and my 'chi' was out of balance. Is that right, chi? lol I think it does matter where you live too, I'm in the southeast. If you have a school nearby, you can get it cheaper too. We have a school of massage therapy & accupuncture nearby & it's cheaper, and it's usually just as good....it's the advanced students close to graduation that you get, or the instructor.

It depends. Mine was usually 50-60 dollars, but it depends on the degree of the alternative medicine practitioner, the length of the visit,the technique, and the first visit is usually more expensive.
