Also studies have been positive, showing that adding acupuncture to standard medical treatments helps people with a wide variety ailments. In these studies, involving thousands of patients, everybody got first-rate regular care-whatever their doctors recommended. Then some patients were randomly chosen to also receive up to 15 sessions of acupuncture. After 3 months and an average of 10 acupuncture treatments , patients were evaluated to see whether their symptoms and ability to function were substantially improved.
