Does It Hurt?

     That's probably the one question I get asked most often. Well, does it? I'll tell you what my patients tell me. "Not as much as a broken heart." "Not nearly as much as the grief for a departed loved one." Not quite as much as the worry over meds." "Sure, I guess it does some, but I'm not thinking about it and so it doesn't bother me."
     The most common side effect in acupuncture treatment is falling asleep.
      And, I'm a big fan of the sleep. So much so, that I give myself a gold star if the patient falls asleep and two gold stars if patient snores!
