There are some on this board I think may use acupunture. I am not one of them, however a search on Google produced 68,500 hits so someone is. ;D
Good luck,
Mark

Someone once drove a pencil into my hand... Does that count? Didn't help with the clusters though... C'est la vie... ;D

Havent tried it but have thought about weather or not it works.. Due to the fact that I seem to be applying preasure to preasuer points... who knows maybe it does work...

Not a exactly a dumb question, IMHO.

I suppose it MIGHT work, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

I'd very much like to talk with someone who had REAL sucess with it, but I don't think I'll find anyone.
(If anyone wishes to prove me wrong, please let me and the rest of us hear about it).

I visited a chiropractor a few times about some mild back problems -- I mentioned I was a cluster sufferer.

He claims he's had sucess helping a few clusterheads --
I tried to be polite and not laugh in his face... ;D

So in short -- if you want to give it a try -- go for it!
Can't hurt -- well, maybe it could with all those needles ;)
But don't expect any miracles from it!

Regards and PFDAN!

Over the years I've tried it 3 different times, the last time being last year for 18 weeks (only because insurance covered it). No success. :( :( Sorry!

No such thing as a dumb question. But a VERY DUMB IDEA!!!!!!!!!! I tried it several years ago with no help what so-ever and several hundred dollars lighter in the pocket ( i beleive i went to this china man 4 or 5 times). Hoping it would work( my neoro.who was treating me at the time told me it would not help,i was desperate and tried anyways. )Good luck.
