[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 27529, member: 1991"] Kjs, I'd be cautious, but proceed. Basically, it's "suck it and see". If there is genuine, obvious improvement then continue. If there is only vague improvement or none at all, then stop. From my digging into this topic - it's more towards the alternative medicine area, which means there COULD be something in it, or it COULD be ripe for exploitations by frauds and tricksters. I've seen both, in the same modality. So go carefully and don't expect all practitioners to give you the results you're currently seeing. I guess it's like chiropractors. There are good ones, who work hand in hand with more conventional medical practitioners, and there are those who are rough as bags and do damage rather than good. Often with alternative medicine you can get a very broad range of quality of care. You need to check the credentials of the practitioner to find out how much experience with this they have, where they got their training and whether there have been any problems with other patients being damaged. Some practitioners can be brilliant; some can be quacks. If there are fewer checks and balances in a profession it is much harder to be sure you're getting quality care. But if you're experiencing improvement, then who is anyone to argue? That is the acid test. Marg [/QUOTE]
