Acu-punk-ture

Ok like most people have noticed and some had made fun of i kinda sprained my neck yesterday i shant go into details... Well yea i had a horrible night waking up with every slight movement of my head. It was horridly pain and i woke up extremely tired. Undoubtedly, my neck was immobilised and stuck at its socket the only direction i could move freely was downwards which was pretty pathetic. During lecture horrible... i could not even look up at the slides on the screen so sickening then bcoz i was so tired i practically drifted to sleep. Eventually i found a way to look at the screen by slouching down if u have difficulty understanding i will show u in the future just remind me =) Ok in general horrible horrible, was in a dispirited mood... Well at the start that is. My apologies. Eventually i managed to survive the day miraculously without losing my patience. Then my dad told me to go for accupuncture!! I havent done it b4 and i know most of u havent let me run it thru haha.

Ok i went to the sensei's house, cos he doesnt have a clinic cos he works as one who goes to people's places as he treats stroke patients mainly. Well my dad knows him as my uncle had a stroke in the past i shant go into details once again. Dun wry he is more than certified in fact he is teaching accupuncture. Ok i went in imaging wad it would be like. After a 2 min short wait, it began!! Basically it was this needle contraption and it just penetrates thru ur skin pain-wise close to nth i could hardly feel it. Then, came the uncomfortable part!! The sensei throbed the needle up n down to ensure it was the right nerve or sth. AND that was super uncomfortable!! It felt like.. well like... i cant explain it it was like there was sth under ur skin moving it wasnt exactly pain but numb n all i cant explain it really.. That was the horrible part!! Then i rested for awhile then he removed the needles. While he was removing them he asked me to move my head. Amazingly, the pain subsided about 70 % and i could pretty much move it left n right freely although looking up is still very much restricted but much better. WOW! i din know how he did it but yea it was cool!! The mystery of traditional chinese treatment. Although uncomfortable it was all worthwhile!!

PS: One day perhaps i may go find out more about it!! And if u ever get a sprained neck tell me!! haha! maybe i can help u or sth.. jk!
