I have constant pain in most of the muscles, bones, and joints of my body, I have no known cancers, and I have been told from doctors (although they haven't run many test) that it is from arthritus. Can Acupuncture help with this? What benefits could I get from this.

Acupuncture can be very helpful for arthritis. It has a well-documented anti-inflammatory effect, and helps to normalize the immune system. Patients with arthritis who use acupuncture treatment typically report less pain, more mobility and function, and a higher quality of life.

I would like to know who's going to pay for this... usually, not insurance. Even when has one insurance, often the copay is enough to put someone into bankruptcy -- without the cost of acupuncture.

It doesn't help when someone with a self-serving screen name like "Aculady" comes in to promote her business. That's nothing more than capitalizing on people's hard times for free advertisement.

Aculady, provide the verifiabls cites for your claims. You're playing with people's lives here. You'd better be reasdy to back up your grandiose claims (if your references hold up to scrutiny I have no problem with your claims).

Daily Horoscope for December 9

Capricorn

You're in an industrious mood but you'll be happiest if you can be left to your own devices as much as possible. It's not that you're feeling unfriendly, simply that you won't be able to concentrate very well if you're surrounded by lots of people. If you haven't even started writing your Christmas cards yet, try to remedy that at some point today.
