keeptrying Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 Has anyone experienced a herx reaction after having acupuncture. My dd's tics increased after her first appointment along with developed new tics too. It has been 3 days and no relief yet. Anyone have an experience to share?

keeptrying Posted November 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 Been one week since acupuncture and my dd's tics are still increased. Has this happened to anyone? Worried if I should do our next appointment. Some say the reactions get less and less with each appointment. Anyone agree?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovedogs Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Hi Keeptrying. No, we have not seen an increase in tics from acupuncture and my son was going for a year straight. Honestly, we didn't see any relief from his tics with acupuncture. He felt that it helped with some shoulder pain from his tics, but not with the tics themselves. So, we stopped going because it was very expensive. I think it's really an individual thing. I know of many kids who were helped by acupuncture and Chinese medicine for their tics, but we just weren't one of them. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeptrying Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 I appreciate the response. Sorry it did not help your son. The only reason we are going to continue to try is because I know it has helped some. Maybe this time we might catch a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
