Has anyone tried aqu puncture for their frozen shoulder. i have been offered it on the N.H.S. could not get an appointment until 21st April. I am really not sure whether to go ahead as there are risks involved

What risks are there with accupuncture.....worth a try, certainly won't do any harm 😊
Yes, i have done it twice 11 day apart. I did find that i had more mobility. I was also given an herbal regument. I was told that it should take 3 sessions. I just have not made the third. Today it will be 14 days sunce my last session. I have looked into others who have done it, many go weekly or twice a week, but i am not a massage person and it some times hurts when he does the massage part. The acupuncture boas not hurt at all. So woyld i have been better going weekly, who knows. I now i have more mobility now, and i keep stretching
For got to and that i have F/S on both
Hi Alison, yes I tried several sessions of accupuncture - sometimes did 2 sessions/week...........had to pay private though - cost me a fortune I felt I did get some relief but it was very short lived He actually told me that my prognosis was poor If you are lucky enough to get it through NHS go for it - but it wont cure your frozen shoulder I'm afraid...........
What is NHS
Linda where you put on an herba . Regement? I an just completeing mine. So, it eas no relif or shprt lived. But yes, it can be costly.
N.H.S. is the National Health Service in Great Britain.
Hi Yvonne, no not put on herb regime but I did start to take multivitamins and cod liver oil caps off my own back. Lol yep National Health Service here in the UK. Its good to see how other countries treat frozen shoulder......
