Fed up with stupid doctors.

The same reason you have such unshakable faith in the Bible.

because it has no unpleasant side effects and provides almost instantaneous relief. it may not last for more than a day or two but the temporary relief you have enjoyed may allow you to gain balance and strength enough to recuperate or recover from whatever episode drove you to acupuncture in the first place. apparently very few Western medical procedures or drugs can so naturally, easily, eliminate disharmony, restore balance effectively and do so with pleasant even euphoric after effects. most Chinese acupuncturists are doctors and can prescribe some herbs that won't be as potent in their effects as the acupuncture but will serve to prolong relief, bring balance, and restore strength. you may also opt for additional acupuncture treatments. Chinese doctors generally are also cheaper than Western doctors. i have never experienced any pain at all with insertion of the needles. however the one time a needle had to go in 3 inches, it was done by an outstanding Chinese doctor in Colorado.

it is well known among those who have tried acupuncture that the Chinese are inarguable experts in the field. rough estimate is that 99% of Chinese acupuncturists are superb, highly skilled and well qualified.

there is a subtle [to us] and not so subtle to them [the qualified acupuncturist] energy flow through acupuncture meridians. when this energy flow is substantially disrupted, the person feels unwell. the worse the disruption, the worse the person feels - mentally/physically. restoring the energy flow is what makes the person feel well and slightly euphoric. acupuncture needles vary in size and depth of penetration. the expert knows exactly what is required.

moxibustion is excellent also from what i hear as i've never had it done. moxibustion utilizes acupuncture points but rather than sticking in needles, a lighted cigarette-like device is held over the acupuncture point and the heat is what causes relief.

ginger compress is also excellent for relieving deep muscle aches and over time may even be able to reverse the effects of organ fatigue or disease. it is non-invasive and provides instantaneous relief with no side effects except perhaps mild euphoria.

That makes no sense. And I wasn't asking you.
