The problem is that another friend of mine has tried acupuncture before, and she said that it really hurt. I must also admit that I don't feel comfortable with needles. Are there any alternatives to acupuncture that don't involve needles? Are they as effective?
Well, there are certain people whose skins are simply extremely sensitive to such prolonged needle-piercing therapy for certain reasons, especially the congenital ones. And frankly speaking I am one of them.
Unfortunately, I just developed one of the symptoms of Tardive Dyskinesia (Rapid Eye Blinking and other Hemifacial Spasms symtpoms) due to the neurological / neuromuscular side effects of certain medications. And ultimately, they could only be cured through acupuncture treatment after I had exhausted other medical and therapeutical channels.
Fortunately, the acupuncturist attending to me was kind enough to impart to me an alternative simple needleless (without using needles at all) acupuncture technique to deliver the almost similar needle-piercing acupuncture effects and to get my Tardive Dyskinesia disorders cured totally once-and-for-all in the end. Subsequently, I have recommended that needleless acupuncture technique to lots of people having the like-problems like what I have faced before and most of them just get healed totally once-and-for-all like me too.
As to the needleless acupuncture technique imparted to me, please refer to the weblink below for further details :

As a conclusion, since I am not an acupuncturist, I wouldn't know whether the all-rounded needleless acupuncture cure would really exist at all for the other disorders as well, I mean other than the ones that me and the others have experienced.
However, as a social worker working for the health cares and welfares of other people, I do hope that in the days to come, medical trials and researches will be dedicated to that area to further explore the unknown and untapped curative potentials of such needleless acupuncture particularly when it comes to dealing with other disorders.
Afterall, needleless acupuncture, well, since it doesn't involve needles, and thus can be exercised on one's own, it is hence a free-of-charge alternative cure, and especially to certain neurological disorders caused by bodily chemical imbalances.
Lastly, from my viewpoint as a social worker, that will be beneficial to lots of people, especially the poor and needy ones (particularly the ones from the less-developed nations) who can't afford to seek proper treatments from the doctors to deal with their miscellaneous illnesses.
