Hey Joe, glad to hear acupuncture helped you. I do that too re get the most benefit i can from the medical plan & depending on funds keep taking treatments that do or might help. It couldn't relieve my situation but i really like it & sleep a bit better the evening of treatment. Good for you & yaye re the Cruise. NICE one.@heyjoe415

Thanks so much for your kind words Elle. (We were on Royal Caribbean's new Star of the Seas.) These new ships are MASSIVE and the entertainment they offer is off the charts good. On this trip, I had six treatments in the spa, including acupuncture. We cruised the Eastern Caribbean and never got off the ship. The ship is the destination.

I have recently tried dry needling. This differs from acupuncture in that the needle is put directly into a tight muscle/knot. It's not very painful, and my therapist can "feel" if the muscle twitches and then releases. At any rate, the results are immediate and my lower back feels great.

All the best Elle!

Joe
