Electro acupuncture is awesome! I, too, was skeptical. I had severe vomiting almost daily for 12 years The regular docs said it was all in my head after stomach dumping test came back normal Went to a naturopath she said probably the impulses between my stomach and brain had gotten messed up after a severe illness 12 years earlier. 3 electro acupuncture treatments later - the problem is virtually completely solved. (I have a few more treatments left) It was hell during the procedure mainly because she told me to only go as high as it was tolerable - I kept her cranking it up because I just wanted relief and thought more shock equaled faster/better result. It’s incredible stuff I don’t quite understand how it works but I am incredibly thankful.
