Accupuncture Gaining popularity

It is nice to see a positive article about accupuncture in the press, seems like we dont get enough good stories. I always hear about some medical sudy done about accupuncture where something like toothpicks are being used on accupunture points saying that it is just as good with a placebo effect. very few stories are positive thus one is saying its growing in popularity!

  1. I saw that story about acupuncture and toothpicks, too. Even with the toothpicks, acupuncture was more effective than the standard treatment for pain. What researchers don't realize is that even if you stimulate acupuncture points with toothpicks, you're still moving the Qi. And even if it's a placebo effect, our placebo is stronger than the standard treatment!
