40 NFL players are treated with Acupuncture regularly by acupuncturist Lisa Ripi. Pittsburgh linebacker James Farrior said: “I’m not the same if I don’t have it. It’s like getting the game plan. You can’t go into the week without either one.”
Ripi, travels at least 20 days each month during the season, treating 40 players on five teams, Jets, Giants, Steelers, Bengals, and Dolphins. She flies to Miami on Sunday, Pittsburgh on Monday, New York on Tuesday, Cincinnati on Wednesday, back to Pittsburgh on Thursday and back to New York on Friday. Players say her sessions are their most important treatment. They feel more loose, more flexible.
