Jasmine’s Lifestyle Guest Perspectives
Jasmine Li is a Lifestyle Guest Columnist and second-year student in the College of Arts and Sciences. She can be reached at [email protected]. Two weeks ago, I lay face down, arms limp, seven needles in my neck. Fear not, I hadn’t fallen victim to an unfortunate attack; I was actually receiving acupuncture at a local traditional medicine clinic in China. My visit was meant to treat a stubborn headache – a souvenir from a summer sports concussion – but I left with a sense of relief beyond the physical.
