“I have a stressful professional life, three young children and I often lack sleep. As a result, periodically, I find myself exhausted, which manifests itself in a whole procession of ailments that have become habitual to me: herpes attack every month before menstruation, eczema, sinusitis, back pain, etc. Until I met my acupuncturist, I was almost always woozy. The first time, I went there urgently for a terrible sinus attack: at the end of the session, the sinuses were free, the pain was gone and several months went by without any trouble. From now on, I don’t wait any longer, I make an appointment as soon as my form drops seriously, about twice a year. And I no longer know all these inconveniences. “

Against tobacco
THE’acupuncture and auriculotherapy have their staunch supporters, who swear that in one sitting they have become indifferent to smoking. This is the case of Eric, 45 years old: “I smoked two packages per day. After a qigong course, the teacher, who is also an acupuncturist, offered to help those who wanted to quit smoking. He placed two needles on the top of our nose … Almost three years ago, and of the seven volunteers, only one did it again. This almost miraculous effect is not always there. Sometimes it takes more sessions and sometimes the patient doesn’t see a difference. It may depend on the acupuncturist … In any case, it is safe to try.
