I just had an acupuncture treatment this morning.
The treatment was specific to a shoulder injury I have had for quite some time. Basically the muscle around the scapula and rotator cuff area is buggered.
Anyhow, I was needled in two points on the point of my shoulder (Colon xx and something else). I was in a seated position. After a little manipulation of the needle I started to get very light-headed and then nauseous (sp?), then I felt like I was about to vomit and cr@p myself. It was a very intense feeling.
My friend (practitioner) said that it was due to the qi being attracted to the needle and that due to the fact that I was sitting the qi drained away from my head. Wow! It was strange. It showed the amazing strength of acu-points.
Just thought you guys might be interested.
Any similar experiences?
