Has anyone heard of this term and or/have done it? My PT asked if I was interested in doing it. It sounds like its basically like acupuncture.

I think yeah it’s basically the western name for acupuncture. My girlfriend swears it’s the only thing that helps her back/hip pain but when I had it done on my tight calves (some years before rupture) it just felt really tense for the next few hours. Personally I think it’s mostly placebo!

I’m a believer in accupuncture. It was the only thing that helped my IT band even going to various Dr and PT’s. I’m only 3 weeks into my rupture, but my Dr. said it can help with recovry.
