It has helped with pain and mood, but not with consistancy.

Used first time 10 years ago. Seemed to help

I used this as my only alternative pain relief method for about 3 years. It took about 6 sessions before I saw any benefit from it, but once I started responding to the treatments, it helped a lot. I could really tell though, when it was about time for my next appt. The pain would start to escalate about 4 days before my next appointment.

Was ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT last time. I had it every 3rd day and I was almost fully recovered in 6 weeks. This time it doesnt seem to be as effective. Quite expensive at 85.00 a session.

I love it! It has helped me for the most part just need to learn how to control them prior to happening. I don't go as consistent as I should but when I do go it helps. No side effects.

Definitely helps with the pain management of the PHN and has given me my face back. I was totally numb in the right side of my face for months and I feel the accupuncture and treatment associated with it helped release the numbness.
