I didn't need acupuncture but the herbs they mixed especially for me remedied my unexplained fatigue that would pop up out of nowhere. It took several months for the herbs to finally work (I admit I was having doubts as to whether they would work for me) but they told me it would take awhile. Now, at 64, I feel more energetic than I have in the last 10 years. Yes, the price may be high but my health and quality of life now makes it all worthwhile!
