Sheryl Crow

Cheryl Crow

In fact, it was my surgical oncologist who recommended I check out the Tao of Wellness, where I supported my treatment with acupuncture as well as herbal teas. The idea is to fortify the immune system. I say why not?”

Katy Perry

“I get a lot of the ideas when I’m resting — either when I’m meditating or getting some kind of work done on my back, like physical therapy or acupuncture. That’s where I get my best ideas, maybe because I’m balancing my body.” 

Katy Perry not only uses acupuncture to help with getting the creative juices flowing, but she also complains of knee pain. She stated in an interview that her knees are giving out on her. To combat this, she receives acupuncture treatments 2-3 times a week.
