Swallowing and Acupuncture - 01-20-2006 01:14 AM
Hello,
At our last head and neck support group meeting, we heard from one of the participants that he had not been able to eat for about six months due to the radiation to head and neck.
He then decided to have acupuncture and if I recall correctly he said that after the third session he went home and was ble to eat a taco.
I would like to hear from others who may have tried acupucture and what their experience has been in improving or facilitating swallowing.
Thank you.
