I have not tried homeopathic or acupuncture. In all honesty; I never really knew how I felt about either of those things; but I'm starting to get a little more open minded these days. Thank you both for your replies!

You sound like me in kind of being off school about trying new things, from technology to fashion to medicine. I have to see a lot of people try it, or I struggle believing it works unless insurance plans have started covering it. I finally took a step on the wild side & out of my comfort zone and tried a round of acupuncture after a lot of reading and encouragement from this forum. I was pleasantly surprised at the results it had for me. I felt it definitively had a calming effect on my leg nerves.

My therapist didn’t suggest it as an ongoing therapy, which was one reason I was a bit reluctant - I wasn’t looking for a new lifelong regimen since I want Physical Therapy as a main time commitment in my life as needed. There were only 5 sessions recommended, so that had me willing to try it. Good luck in finding what works for you!
