one quick question; I run/walk long
distance events, anything above 50km up to
various hundreds, but unfortunately I am
quite prone to blisters and, after various
changes and many years (i tried
everything, vaseline, talc, thin socks,
thick socks, tape, no tape, alcohol, foot
cream...) I have been told that "maybe"
acupuncture could help.
For as long as I do a non-stop event, no
problem; it is painful, but I can usually
finish. The real problem is multi day
events where you have to run/walk on new
blisters day after day and see the problem
just get worse. And painful. If only I
could push back the moment blisters start
developing it would be a huge help.
I am looking for a prevention, not cure.
Does anyone know if acupuncture could
help?
