Well no miracle cure from the Acupuncture session.....

Norseman · « **Reply #252 on:** November 22, 2013, 10:54:11 pm »

Took six sessions Martin

NHS

But I honestly think £300 would have been well worth my outcome.

All I'm saying, if I just rested it up properly for the same six weeks, I'd save myself the £300 quid!
I didn't feel ANY benifit from the Acupuncture .... Think I'll seek physiotherapy next.

Martin,
Acupuncture is not an instant fix, It stimulates the body into accelerating its healing process.
That's why it takes a few sessions to work.
Give it a chance.
You go trying each and every 'cure' your going to do more damage and have to resort to surgery, which has no guarantee either.
Be patient, look after your body, its the only one your got, and it has to last a while yet.
cheers

She seems very experience but I did get a little concerned when I caught her looking something up in a book!

There are acupuncturists and there are acupuncturists.
Maybe you need to look further?

Norseman · « **Reply #260 on:** November 23, 2013, 03:33:12 pm »

Each to his own Martin - maybe rest is all you need.

In my case years of pain and failed treatment methods. Then just six occasions of a few needles left in for half an hour each visit = success. Plus the young lady was very easy on the eye

Martin I suffer from Ankylosing Spondylitis a type of arthritis and my physio eventually suggested acupuncture for a very painful joint.
I was of the "highly dubious but will try anything to get rid of the pain" frame of mind and gave it a go. Took a few visits but I got nearly
two years painfree living. AND I got it on the NHS and it cost not a penny.
Definitely worth it.
Best of luck
Geoff

Two words, Vibrating Massager.

Oh the relief... even if somewhat temporary!

my bad back responds nicely to the heated seats in my Volvo.

I'll be round to test on Saturday!

Most site say ice packs help but I found the opposite.

Don't be tempted to try the oriental massage technique where the slight boned lady walks on your back.
My wife has walked all over me for years and it hasn't helped me at all

Dave

grasshopper · « **Reply #266 on:** November 28, 2013, 01:19:52 am »

Question is Norseman, is your wife as 'slight boned' as the Oriental lady....?
That could be the reason it's not done you any good!

Norseman · « **Reply #267 on:** November 28, 2013, 01:28:40 pm »

My wife is a fine woman and I love the bones of her

Not so keen on the other twenty stone

At this point Irishcarguy is planning to blackmail me and tell her

Dave

Commenting on your wife's weight is worse than asking for a death sentense, are you looking for a divorce Dave ?. Mick B.

sentense,

You might have had the grace to state that I was doubling her weight there Mick.
You have been in the colonies too long and now cannot spell

... even your spell checker is colonic.

Like the Yanks, the Canuks, also have their own way of spelling, a little bit of Englsh mit a bit o French

Hi Arty don't even ask how the Irish spell or you might get a shot of Gaelic, that is if I can still remember. I hated the time I wasted trying to learn Gaelic in school. It was an utter waste of time, I have never used a word of it since. As for my spelling Dave, I am nearly top of the class when it comes to Mayhem, & I am much better at English than you are at Gaelic so there.LOL. Mick B.

For those of you that missed me (and also those that did not) I am still here & hanging in but I have had a lot of days that I could have done without.I changed doctors & it has been a big help. I still keep an eye on you guys on the forum just in case you are making life too easy for Martin, cheers all, Mick B.

Martin (Admin) · « **Reply #273 on:** May 20, 2014, 09:09:03 am »

Good to hear from you Mick!
Chin up etc!
