Because of my previous occult/drug involvement, I stay totally away from anything that evens smells new age.. for real.. Personally, it made me aware of the little tactics that the enemy will use merely for a foothold. Seems harmless to her.. after all she is now losing weight. Please give me some comments/ideas that I may be able to share with her.. blessings, Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I do not know if the accupuncture works, from all that I read the staples are very ineffective in most people and can be dangerous. http://www.annecollins.com/obesity/obesity-acupuncture.htm This is a site that promotes the acupuncture but also discusses why one should not do the staples. I might add that I have used acupuncture for asthma and it did seem to help, but the mind is a wonderful thing and I don't know if it was the needles or me that helped. Whichever the case the staples can cause severe problems and should be looked at very carefully before using. SE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest XxCurvyxX Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Erm - Just a question to ask How do staples in your ear help you lose weight?!? Sounds bizzare to me! What ever happened to watching what you eat and good old exercise?? Curvy x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
