I'm looking for a qualified acupuncturist in the Mulege/Santa Rosalia area to help me deal with some back problems. Anyone know of such a person?

No one locally that I've heard. However, there are in the southland.

Go talk to Victor at Ferreteria Yee. A few years ago he found a Chinese doctor in La Paz for a friend who received treatment satisfactorily. The doctor is listed in the La Paz Yellow Pages, I believe.

There is an American practitioner either in Los Barriles or Todo Santos area. I've read info on Pony Express or another emailer.

"Just wander out into the desert just about anywhere and the cholla will puncture you accu-rately from the knees on down". There are a number of therapists in La Paz and also in the Capes region.

well, i wasn't really holding out much hope but it wouldn't be prudent to try and drive to la paz 3 days a week....i'll just get out the wife's sewing kit and go at it.

Take that from someone who REALLY knows!

There is a guy in San Lucas Ejido who lives just north of where Wayne Davy lived when we was still there who does massage therapy and everyone that has ever used him is amazed at how well he does this. He is the grandfather of Raul and Oscar who the gringos at San Lucas Cove have sent to secondary school.
