This is unbelievable medieval quackery that is gaining an increasing foothold in American life. Its theory and practice are based on primitive and fanciful concepts of health and disease that bear no relationship to present scientific knowledge. All the research militates against it. Most perceived benefits come from good old regressive fallacy or raised expectations when treatment begins. If you believe that pain and illnesses build up in your body due to the accumulation of qi, then this is for you. Perhaps the acupuncturist should stick some of the needles into the gray matter.
I hope my insurance rates don't have to cover payments for this bunk.
