Message for Lucy and Jules and anyone else doing acupuncture

Post by fiona_lk »

Hi Lucy and Jules,<br><br>I've a question.<br><br>When you first started acupuncture, did your right arm go numb during the session? My acupuncturist said that the points she was using near my right wrist related to my spirit and the 'heat of my heart' (so trying to ease any anxiety or irritability). <br><br>It doesn't hurt, just a little on the strange side and wondered if anyone had experienced anything remotely similar.<br><br>I suppose if this gets less as the weeks go on then I'm recovering emotionally and getting stronger.<br><br>Still taking the sweeties (oh, need to take one now) and feeling generally much better.<br><br>Lots of Love<br><br><br>Fiona xxxx
