I tried acupunture for a herniated disc in my neck.
It didn't really help me much. I thought it would help with the cause, and have relief of the symptoms as a side benefit, but that didn't happen.
It was very relaxing to lie there with soft music, a warm table. I would go maybe 2x's a week (I think) and he'd leave some needles in my arm when I left, covered in bandages.
I ended up getting better relief with more "western" treatment - 4 ESI's (epidural steroid injections) and loads of traction.
