I have lost faith in western medicine, and I'm thinking of goin to see a chinese herbalist type majiggy. Has anyone had any experience of these types? Are they expensive?

the acupuncturist i sometimes go to for my dodgy sinuses also uses chinese herbal medicine, and it's been very helpful for me and a few friends who've tried it. it's not particularly cheap, though, in that you'll have to pay for a consultation (not sure how much that is, as i've always had acupuncture as well) and the herbs are about 7 quid per two day's supply or thereabouts.

i can pm you her details if you like, she's in portobello.

I go to Melt in Temple Bar for acupuncture and herbs, and it's pretty good. I think consultations are free, and the acupuncture is 24euro for 1/2 an hour, 40 for an hour, though they do half-price on weekday mornings.

hmm interesting. that sounds pretty reasonable like. Do you find it's effective? I had acupuncture done when I was a kid and it did nattin for me.
