Acupuncture in Our Country

When I have been nurse in China. I saw some patients to use acupuncture to remedy their arthritis. Many patients used acupuncture in summer. It is very common. That can remedy their trouble ailments of pain. So each summer was busy season in acupuncture department.
Before I came to the USA I saw many overweight people need to lose their weights to try acupuncture. the acupuncturist used more needles to insert into different acupuncture points on people's abdomen, arms and legs. that stays in place for 30 minutes. three time a week. A course of treatment for one month, at same time, the ear's needles stay in place for a course of treatment. People usully pinch ear's needles by their selves. the result is good. So many people try to do.
