           Don, et.al:
     Here in the town  where I live,  there is an "Academy of Chinese
Medicine", ie. an Acupuncture School.   They hold a student clinic 2 or 3
days a week where you can get a treatment by students, (under very qualified
supervision) for a very reasonable price; sorta like gettin' a haircut at the
barber school for cheap, and certainly no different  (maybe safer)  than
being treated by an overworked intern at a modern western-medicine hospital.
  You might call around to see if there is something similar in your
area...good luck!
