Hi guys, I was just wondering if any of you guys use acupuncture or other traditional Chinese medicine therapies such as cupping to treat your lifting or workout injuries?
I had been recovering from glute injury which had impinged on the sciatic nerve which caused similar symptoms of someone who had a slipped disc ie pain running from the glute all the way to the toes. Sciatic pain was albsolutely excruciating.... Sleeping, standing, sitting we're nearly unbearable think let alone working out!!!. After a few sessions of acupuncture in conjunction with absolutely brutal deep tissue massage I am back working out although still not 100% yet.
Just wanted to see who out there give some of these alternative measures a try rather the straight to the Physio or chiro.
Cheers
