Does accupuncture work?

I just recently started going to see an Accupuncturist, I have been twice and although I have been relaxed when I am there, I am unsure of if it is really working or not. Would love to hear other people's experiences with it, if you want to share?

I once wondered the same thing. I went to an acupuncture once for 3 sessions for sinus problems. Outside of feeling really relaxed and taking naps I really didn't see changes, then I got so busy in life I just never returned. I could say it didn't work but then maybe I did not stick with it long enough. Research says it works but I am not really sure if it does.

Yes, it works. When I was in a primary school, accupuncture was still a novelty in my country. My parents decided to advise a doctor how to help my weakening eyesight. I had -2,5 back than and after a month of accupuncture my eyesight improved by 0,5 and I had only -2. I can recommend it to people who want to improve their health as it really works :)

well my young sis when finished 9th grade she went to a spa center to work a few time and one day she felt dizzy and fell on the floor and the doctor there did that accupuncture and my sister woke up and felt better. it helped her that day so i think this is a method that really works and helps people relaxing so i think you should keep it^^
