my late husband had acupuncture treatments for specific issues and the treatments brought great relief to him. his knees, his shoulders, etc. rather than looking at the huge picture, he tried to fix what he could fix so he had more strength to deal with the rest. he was one of the least likely to try what was then an alternative therapy and over the years became a believer based on experience and realistic expectations. maxine ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
