Has anyone ever had acupuncture?

[Shaniece]

I was wondering if it is any good for PMT? I am desperate to try anything before resorting to the happy pills.

I have tried reflexology but found it crap. Made me feel worse if anything and this was over a 2 year period.

Anyone???

I had it for morning sickness. It worked really well for the first few sessions but then didn't work. But I know plenty of people who have really been helped on it. Think it depends how good the practitioner is...

I agree about depending how good the practioner is. I found with the reflexology it worked for while then if anything I felt worse. I need to try something different.

I tried it for infertility & it worked.

I had it for eczema 6 years ago and it has never come back.
Sorry to highjack but Furiousgeorge what part of the country do you live in im trying to find one who deals with fertility.I'm in Essex.

Leicestershire I'm afraid.I looked in the Yellow pages for qualified practitioners & luckily the 1st one I rang was an ex midwife who lived in the next village.I hope you find someone as it helped me & also a friend who had had lots of unsucessful IVF cycles.

I'd love to know how you get on if you do find someone.

Will let you know furiousgeorge.

I am a huge fan of accupuncture. It helped me get pregnant, it helped me through pregnancies and it helped me with hormonal changes and stuff afterwards. After ds2 was born, I didn't go to my accupuncturist for 2 years as I was skint and had no babysitter - I got the most terrible PMS, far worse than I have ever had. Went back last Nov and that month had almost no pms symptoms. I think with alternative therapies, some work for some people and not for all - accupunture works very well for me for lots of things (I also get treatment for allergies and asthma), but when I tried reflexology, it didn't help at all, although others swear by it. Give it a try, and I hope it helps.
