I am thinking of doing this, mainly for my thyroid and the mental fog I have been in. Any thoughts on this? Have you tried it? Can someone give me an idea on frequency and costs?

I really like it. Started during my IF journey and have continued on. My lady has helped me with anxiety, sleep, waking up to pee, headaches, allergies, asthma... She's truly Part of my wellness now.
I pay $65/session. Mine isn't insurance covered, but I can reimburse through my HSA.
I do it for stress relief and will do it if we move forward with IVF. I started out going 2x a week for 3 weeks and now go once every 2 weeks. My insurance covered most of the first 6 sessions (I paid $15 each time) and now I pay $40 each session. I enjoy it.
I did it after my m/c and I swear it helped me get pregnant again so quickly. My cycles were never anything close to regular, except while doing acu. I am not a massage person, so for me, it's relaxing in the way I think massage people think they are relaxing.
I started recently for anxiety. It has been incredible. Like I feel like a different person. The first few weeks I had to go 2x a week, and now I am down to once a week.
The practitioner I chose is out of network, so it was OOP for a bit, $135 was the initial, then $85 a session. I have met my deductible though, so now it's a 30% copay. I was really skeptical and didn't want to pay so much, but seeing how much it has helped makes me feel that it's worth it.
