I too tried acupuncture 4 times for back pain, and felt relief for that day. I woke up the next day same pain as usual everyday. So I too never went back.

hello again, my Acupuncturist was a specialist in peripheral neuropathy and she stated that it takes a few sessions For the Accupuncture to have any effect. That was true. It's not cheap and Medicare won't pay for it but for the time I took it it was very much worth it because the pain and sensations were is gone by the end of 2 1/2 months.

My experience was very similar. Felt good afterwards but a short time later the pain returned. My insurance didn't cover it so I paid out of pocket. Couldn't justify it after having treatments once a week for several months.
