Will acupuncture help arthritis?

I agree with the first answer but also it would help to go to a MEDICAL acupunturist. This is an MD who is also trained in acupuncture and the combination allows him to use heated needles as well as prescribe other therapies. Some people say it works wonders, other say it does nothing but it does take more than one session to feel lasting results.

I work in the chronic pain field. As far as acupuncture is concerned, it appears to be a niche. Some of my patients swear by it but others say it doesn't do anything for them. All I can recommend is that you try it and see if it works for you.
I have a suggestion for permanent resolution and it is cheaper than acupuncture. After 12 years in research & development, finally an all natural way to relieve pain and joint stiffness of arthritis has been released to the public. Via Viente, a great tasting tonic made of nine whole fruits has been proven in human clinical trials. Taking this amazing product will help with many other illnesses at the same time. The patients in the clinical trials also had lower blood pressure, lower blood sugar levels and lower heart rate. It鈥檚 made for people of all ages and can be taken along with all prescription medications with no negative side effects. See the whole story presented by Olympic Gold Medalist, Peggy Fleming.
