    Don’t agree with the take, but shouldn’t have been removed either way.

    I am almost 18 years old, I’ve been dealing with chronic pain before I even started my teen years. Started out with just Chiari 1 Malformation, now it’s spine/spinal cord deterioration, arthritis, nerve damage, and apparently having a dislocated shoulder previously??? All of this on top of my main brain condition.

    It’s been a minute since I’ve been to an acupuncturist because my family is often busy, but I seriously do feel that although temporary, helped a large portion of my back pain and headaches. It has done what some seriously powerful prescriptions could not. I go to someone local in my area, in Texas, and I just can’t see how this is somehow linked to the CCP?

    I get acupressure (cupping) done more often, cause we have a set at home, and that too has helped a good chunk of my pain. I don’t give a shit at this point if it’s placebo or not, I felt relief, and that’s all I give a shit about on the matter.
