After years of sciatica and consequently sleepless nights, I decided to try acupuncture. By my 8th session I was having substantially less pain and my sleep had improved immensely, I also noticed great improvement in my general health, decreased digestion discomfort, and a real feeling of well being. I can now enjoy long walks and especially like not taking pain killers and anti-inflammatory medication."
