I had acupunture done for my dizziness, ear racket, etc.. It worked for me thus far. I still feel a bit wobbly at times and feel that boat rocking. My ears still ring but not as loud and not as long as they use to before the acupuncture treatment. Anyone every try that besides me?

" NO, but I am really thinking of it. There is an accupuncturist in the village where I live. What is it actually like, does it hurt - and now many sessions did you have for any improvement. I think if something works it must be worth a try. Cant you let me know how you get on? :) "

" No the acupuncture did not hurt me. My Acupuncture Dr was Chinese, and he taught it for years in China so he knew just where to stick and for how long to leave needles in. I had treatment daily for 3 weeks. Its been almost 3 yrs since my last treatment. I did have a big improvement! I should continue treatment, but my doctor lives in Florida where I had lived for years and years. Now I reside in Arizona, and need to find good acupunctureist who knows what they are doing. I would encourage you to try the acupuncture. If you have tried everything else but acupuncture then what have ya got to lose? "

" WEnt and had my first acupunture session. I think I am in thr right mind set - I want it to work. Anyway, the practitioner was excellent and spent a long time first talking through my history. Then I had the acupunture which did not hurt, I dont know why I was worried. I hadnt thought I would feel such a sense of, well it was heavy weightlessness - if that makes sense. I am going to have weekly sessions - would like more, but cant really manage it - will see how it goes though. :) "
