Just curious about people's experience with continued acupuncture treatment . It has given me my life back and wanting so see how many have tried it and stuck with it.

Oh wow great to know!! Where on your body do they place the cups?
CLapierre Member
the cups are placed in areas of stiffness and/or discomfort. In my situation the cups are placed lower back and shoulders-neck area.

I haven't tried cupping. What does that do?!
CLapierre Member
cupping helps stimulate your skin and muscles. The suction promotes increased blood circulation, which may help relieve muscle tension, promote cell repair, and aid in other regeneration. I have this treatment done almost every 3 weeks

I find Acupuncture and cupping to be extremely helpful for my AS.

I have been doing acupuncture for regularly for about 3 years now. And I can say that for me if is definitely one of my best tools I use to fight AS! It took me awhile to find one that I connected with and felt comfortable with. But not I go every Friday morning. And I can say that this is one of my highlights of my week each and every week. Every if it doesn’t relieve all the aches and pains I’m having at that moment, it does wonders for my mental health! Helps keep in in the moment in a mindfulness state. Hope you all have an amazing weekend! Stay strong AS warriors! ❤️💪 😀 Brandon
