anybody tried acupuncture?

[mrdevious]

I've really been considering trying acupuncture for my back pain, and especially my neck pain (oh freaking hell does my neck hurt). I was just wondering if anybody here has tried it, preferrably for back or neck pain, and how usefull they thought it was.

my auntie does acupuncture, and she swears by it, for evrything, i've seen her sticking big needles into her own knee and start twisting them n stuff, she even reckons she can help u quit smoking with acupuncture.

now that I think of it, any alternative treatment suggestions are whelcome as well :) .

eeeerm, either get a good massage, one that'll hurt so much you will be in pain for 2 days before u get better, or just smoke some smelly shit to numb the pain.
