Acupuncture and electrotherapy?

So I had an appt. with my acupuncturist yesterday. I was to be starting stims last night, so she said she would do the microcurrent electrotherapy on my lower belly to stimulate my ovaries. i barely felt it, it felt a tiny current.

How strange it was, didnt hurt, but hey if it helps! Has anyone else had this done??

  • I've had this done before but not on my belly.  I've had it on my legs to help with RA.  It does feel very strange.  Almost like little tingles!

  • My chiropractor did this to my back when I pulled it out.  I agree, it doesn't hurt... just an odd sensation, and once I got used to it, it was actually really relaxing.

  • ok cool, i thought it was strange but kinda cool at the same time! :) Hope it works for everyone!
  • I've done it before.  It's supposed to help with your lining and with maturing your eggs.  I thought it felt kind of cool!

  • I've had it done to my ovaries while I was doing acu a while back. Definitely a different sensation, but I agree very relaxing.
