Hi,
My two cents:
I have moderate/severe carpal tunnel syndtome, sometimes to thepoint of paralysis. The ONLY treatment that helps in acupuncture, and the needles hurt like the dickens, but afterwards the pain is completely gone until I overuse my hands again and get another flare-up. It's incredible relief. My insurance, however won't pay for it, but will pay for Western medical approaches, if that means 2 worthless office visits a week, cortisone treaments, and eventual surgery that's fine w/ them. Go figure.
