Acupuncture and Osteoporosis?
Has anyone tried acupuncture to help reduce bone loss or improve bone quality due to osteoporosis?
I just came across this article which indicates acupuncture may be helpful.

I have significant osteoporosis in my spine, but no fractures so far and I am searching for anything other than osteo prescription meds (which scare me). I am trying many new things right now (6 prunes/day, Marodyne LiV, collagen and am getting ready to try L. reuteri probiotic soon) in addition to the "normal" stuff.
A friend suggested I research acupuncture.
