Urgent Help please - Su Jok/sterile needles

[Guest guest]

Today I went to see a new therapist who practices Su Jok acupuncture. I am

concerned to read elsewhere that you can be trained in under three days to

do this form of acupuncture. Should I be, and has anyone here had positive

results from this therapy?

Secondly, he used micro-needles to stimulate points on my hands, taken

from a jar in which they were submerged in 98% alcohol. He assured me that

they were new, and gave me the needles in a vial filled with alcohol to take

home and bring back for my next treatment. I am uneasy about this approcah

to need storage on his behalf - should I be? I have had traditional

acupuncture on many occasions, and have always had needles taken from

sterile blister packs which are then discarded in a yellow bin for hazardous

medical waste.

I've moved areas, and am desperate for pain relief for fibromyalgia and CFS,

and am due to have another appointment tomorrow, but feel uneasy.....
