My wife had cronic pain from Multiple Sclerosis for years and Acupuncture did wonders for controlling the considerable pain, but as stated above you need to do it regularly. I recommend it highly!
BUT specifically the Rheumatoid Arthritis see below from another post I had!!!
There has been some recent discoveries about this form of Arthritis, see this book "The New Arthritis Breakthrough" by Henry Scammel, where they have studied (double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials) and found that Rheumatoid arthritis (and many supposed autoimmune disorders) are actually a mycoplasma infestation in the connective tissues/joints. These types of arthritis have responded well to an improvement in your immune system, and/or a specific powerful set of antibiotics (tetracyclines and the like). Once you realize that this form of arthritis is not an autoimmune as many have held over the years you can start to see results immediately!
I suggest trying nutrition based improvement of immune system first by adding these to your diet:
1) GlycoNutrients - improve cellular communication to allow your body to respond to these micro infections.
2) PhytoNutritents - give your body the missing nutrients for raw materials to heal
3) AntiOxidants - help you body defend against future attacks of this sort. (I suggest AntiOxidants with an ORAC of over 10,000)
4) PhtyoSterols - endocrine support for improved regulation
These will all boost your immune system to take care of the infection and over time you will feel better.
All of these are available from one place, contact me immediately via e-mail and I can tell you how to get the correct form for these. You will see an immedate improvement if you start quickly - Check it out!
I did have acupuncture once....I still had pain from oral surgery that I had a few years back so my doctor suggested it. It was a painless but time consuming process. If you have a fear of needles I would not recommend it though.
I did notice an instant relieve of pain afterwords but the effect did not last for more than a few days. I was told that several treatments may be needed for any long term help.
I recently had acupuncture for the first time. Both my shoulders were frozen and it helped tremendously. The acupuncture effects lasted for a while, but she also gave me chinese herbs to take afterwards which helped a lot as well. I'm sure I'll go back again for periodic treatments. I would definitely recommend it.
