I know people from completely different walks of life whom have used it and swear by it. I don't fully understand how it works - something to do with stimulating nerve endings that re-direct or block pain signals?

A few medical programs here in the States offer Physicians training in accupuncture - which says alot about its effectiveness.

They do not generally offer training in Chinese herbal medicine - which has fewer clinical studies?
