    Helped me

    While I don't know an accupuncturist in your area, I can attest to the benefits. I found one near me (VA) that is a survivor and he really helped me with saliva production, neuropathy and chronic pain. I went for 6 months, 2 seesions a month. I wish I could continue but it was expensive. I hope you find someone locally.
