@Blossom1961 Funny!
I have pulled the pin on the acupuncture treatment. My perception is that for what I was paying, the benefit was not substantial enough to continue. I think it helped a little, especially in my hands, so I will observe over the next couple of months if they deteriorate, and return to focus on them should that happen.
Osteopathy is cheaper and provides more pain relief for me. At this stage anyway. It's also more enjoyable. The acupuncture was not relaxing for me. Bloody painful in fact!
