Acupuncture

[Bristolgirl]

I am in the early stages of PSP. I have a question for you all- has anyone tried acupuncture? Was it any good?

Acupuncture might be helpful with some pain and limited movement issues early in the disease. In no way, is it a magical panacea. Be weary of any claims or representations made by the many treatment/cure ads on social media and hucksters.

Bristolgirl,

Ruth had acupuncture in the earlier stages - I think for dystonia pain in her foot. I think like Daddyt says it may be helpful but it is unlikely to make a big difference. But no reason not to give it a go!
