Acupuncture for Torn Ligament

Acupuncture has helped me with many ailments. One specific ailment was relief from the pain of a torn ligament in my right knee. It had been 4 weeks since my accident (a dog ran into my my knee hyper-extending it to the left). I was taking ibuprofen, using ice and a brace. After 4 weeks there was little improvement until Lisa Marie asked if I would like my knee treated as part of my treatment. I felt immediate improvement as I was able to walk down her steps with a lot less trouble. I continued treatment every week for 6 weeks and my knee is almost back to normal. My orthopedist was very surprised at the speed of my recovery.
