I have suffered from hot flashes (personal climate changes) for many years. I chose not to go the HRT route and tried just about everything with not much success.

A friend suggested I try acupuncture since it was the only thing that gave her relief. Since I felt I had exhausted all the other options, I decided to give it a try. After only 4 treatments and supplementing with some natural Chinese herbs, I am virtually hot flash free! My insurance covered each session in full with no co-pay! I am scheduled for a "tune-up" in about a month.

I am not sure if it will last forever, but at least I know I can have another treatment to keep those pesky hot flashes at bay.
