Folks,
It seems quite a few people seem to follow holistic or Eastern methods of health or thinking.
Like a lot of things the Eastern philosophy on medicine is quite different than what's standard in the West.
Case in point when I was practicing kung fu....I was throwing the same punch over and over again....and because I wasn't paying the proper attention....I forgot to go full extension on one of my punches and managed to either tear or at least had a very severe muscle pull in my chest.
Every time I'd breathe it was like getting stabbed by an ice pick.
My sifu/master Lee administered acupuncture for 5 straight days and the problem completely
cleared up by the end of the week.
No other medical treatment or medications were required and the problem never recurred...still not 100% sure of how it works but it did.
Anyone else have similar experiences along these lines?
Regards + HH
