This is a long one, but it's worth it! In this episode of Long-Winded, we sit down with our guest Ian Lowther, a licensed acupuncturist who also happens to be Cyrus' childhood best friend. We discuss what acupuncture is and how it is best utilized, as well as some of the stigma and taboo surrounding it. We also give our best shot at reconciling the unfortunate conflation of holistic, alternative, eastern, and homeopathic treatments in medicine, and how one can go about navigating these various treatment options. As always, we go off-topic plenty, as we try to keep our conversations as casual and organic as possible, but the discussion around acupuncture begins at about the 24 minute mark. Thanks for tuning in!
