I highly recommend it! You feel so good when you leave there. I was also getting treated for Fibro but they worked on my back too. GO TRY IT. It was also covered by my insurance...It does not hurt. I hate needles, blood etc...If you get a good acupuncturist, you will not feel any pain. If you do, request another doctor or try another place. You will not regret it. You leave there feeling so relieved, like the world has been lifted off your shoulders and the pain is GONE.
