  2. Hi Carlos. Years ago I received acupuncture treatment on a regular basis. One day, the acupuncturist - Taizan Meguro, a Master in every sense of the word - greated me with a needle standing straight up from his clean-shaven head like a single antenna. I didn't ask. The needle fell off as we sat at his desk and he started laughing - it turned out his wife, acupuncturist Kerstin Meguro, had been treating him for his headache earlier that day and he had forgotten to remove the needle, walking around with it for hours...
