Nice tribal tat lol I’ve always wanted to get one but never pulled the trigger.
I think it’s definitely got it’s place for getting relief. It might not work for everything and it also depends on the skill of the person doing it but I think for these things like shoulder issues, knee issues and others it can really help.
Sorry about the suffering for your mum with the alternatives she tried. That definitely leaves an impression so I don’t blame you for being hesitant.
Thanks mate, it's a pretty big tattoo, nine hours in all...Yeah it hurt! Lol..
I'm not against NM or alternative medicine, it certainly has its place, but so does traditional medicine I think. It's a very personal choice though and people. Goose one or the other, or both, based on what they know and believe, as it should be. My mum did and that was here choice. I respected it.
Acupuncture has always seemed to work for me and the dry needling certainly did so I'd have to I'd do it again if I had to.
