I was having a very bad back pain 2 months ago, to a point that I couldn’t sleep and having a hard time standing up and walking. I went to acupunturist(s) for a month, 2-3 times a week, and a chiropractor. I also started few stretching exercises. The pain is almost gone and I can wear heels again.

One acupunturist I went to was an 80 year old Chinese guy. In the beginning he would say, “Ok, this is an emergency, we need to fix this fast, so I am going to use a big needle.” Even before I could say a word, I would feel the needle and lighting bolt down my back and all the way to my toes. I would feel good right after and for few days at first, but after few weeks, I started able to hold on to it longer and longer. The chiropractor also then helped to align my spine and muscles. I did all that without any medication.

H also had chronic back pain for years. He also got it fixed by going to acupunturist/chiropractor. I don’t remember last time has had any back problem. When he was younger, in his 30s, his back used to go out every few months.
