Nice to know that.

I thought of trying something like that because of reflux problems. I can't imagine how come acupucture could help you with using your voice correctly, but maybe you were not using it in a wrong way, but had some other problem that caused it to behave 'wrongly' when singing. I'm betting a lot on TMJ search that in www.altavista.com and you'll be startled at what a jaw problem may cause to one's body ): I'll be starting wearing braces next week. I think Alexander Technique may be extremely helpful too ( it seems we have an AT specialist here on the list. Diane, I think. )

Where does the acupuncturist put the needles into? Your neck? What does he/she say he/she is doing?
