Can you drink alcohol after having accupuncture?

No: Alcohol seems to decrease the energy input effect that the acupuncture does. It seems to alter the flow of the chi.

Shouldn't: Recommend that you don't drink alcohol, eat large meals, get exposed to cold, exercise or have stress for the rest of the day after an acupuncture session. Exposing yourself to these elements that sometimes make you feel worse than you did before you had the acupuncture treatment.
