Posted - 06/21/2011 : 06:30:01 Just a curious thing that happened to me a few weeks ago. I was still getting familiar with the TMS stuff and went to an acupuncturist, out of curiosity, with the hope it would help my RSI and my sore arms/wrists/shoulders.
I am quite rational and I am not a fan of alternative remedies but my boyfriend was pushing me so...I mainly went to make him happy. Anyway, the interesting thing is that after the woman covered me in needles, she made a comment about my repressed anger (of course I didn't tell her anything about that). She pointed at a couple of needles she put on my hand and said there were a lot of repressed emotions and especially anger being released.
I found it an interesting coincidence. |

Posted - 06/21/2011 : 09:07:58 When I first saw my acupuncturist, she told me I had had anxiety since I was a child (correct), my parents were a major cause of it (correct) and I had suffered from bouts of IBS (correct).
Now, of course, you could say that it's like mediums, who put lots of information out there and you pick up on the correct information and discard the wrong; or any of the things she said could be obvious from my symptoms - but that was all she said, and it was impressive. I still believe there's a place for acupuncture (when done correctly, well and safely) in healing mindbody syndromes.
