Appreciate your response, pyates, as my Pain Management M.D. is recommending I try this "option" (using his Acupuncture Therapy Order) before considering more invasive options for low back pain.

Same thing happened to me. My insurance said I didn't qualify for epidural injections until I'd exhausted other pain-control methods.
As for accupuncture, I've been told that the quality of specialists' training fluctuates (sometimes wildly) from one practioner to the next. Allegedly there's a big difference between the best-trained accupuncturists and everyone else in the field. That's anecdotal info, though.
