Subj: Neil Leupold's injury
Date: Sat, 14 Sep 1996 23:36:40 -0400

Let me first say how sad I am that Neil is injured and let me add to
his list of things to consider both accupuncture and accupressure.

We who have used European medicine for our whole lives have a tendency
to be skeptical of other medical techniques. Accupunture is one of them.
But several hundred million people use it, including its use as part
of surgical procedures carried out without anasthetics.

Accupressure is the assertion that pressure on certain nerve
areas can relieve pain.

I cannot comment on the efficacy of either technique, simply mention them.
