Hi Amiejo, i had accupuncture about 5 years ago, and for me it dident work, but we are all different and some things that works for some doesnt work for others,i no that it has worked for many people on here,so i would sugest to just go with an open mind, good luck love and gentle hugs xxxx :-)

I had this with great success, although apart from fibromyalgia, I slipped 2 disc years ago, which ended my career in nursing, and every so often I went for acupuncture. It really did wonders for my back, but haven't had it for fibro up to now

The evidence suggests that acupuncture can help relieve Fibro pain in some people, but that benefits tend to be short-lived, so it's not a good long-term therapy.

Hi Amiejo, I had a course of acupuncture some time ago and it did help. However, it was on the NHS and they only give you something like 6 sessions which is really not enough. Its something you need to keep on having to keep feeling the effects. xx

good ther are few have this on site and ll says it does them good so good luck love to you diddle x
