When you read the underlying "logic" behind how acupuncture is supposed to work, it is obvious that it is a scam. "Qi" and "meridians"? Really?
So close minded.

Not understanding how it works does not make it BS. Was a time we thought illness was due to evil spirits. We still don't understand how gravity works, does that make it nonsense?
