Climbing injuries and acupuncture
I stumbled across a provocative set of articles discussing the treatment of climbing injuries from an Eastern medical perspective (primarily using acupuncture). From Acupuncture Today, here are the links to these articles:
Treating Common Wrist and Finger Injuries and Integrating Medical Philosophies, Part One
Treating Common Wrist and Finger Injuries and Integrating Medical Philosophies, Part Two
I’m interested in hearing if anyone has tried using acupuncture to treat a climbing injury. Several years ago I tried acupuncture for a lingering finger injury and I did not have much success. I’ve been told, though, that acupuncture is highly dependent on the skills of the practitioner.
