A few years ago, I injured my knees, and kept walking without seeking medical treatment. I eventually had difficulty walking. I went from doctor to doctor (primary care, orthopedists, etc) without any success in healing. Finally, I decided to go for an acupuncture treatment. I did a lot of research on who I thought would be the best in the area.

To cut to the point, I walked in there on crutches and walked out "carrying" the crutches.

"Alternative medicine" is not something I would dismiss if there is a chance of healing your particular condition.
