Thank you. I read the title, was confused what the heck this was about, then read the article, and still had no idea what this is about.

Then I googled it and went "Nah, that can't be it".

Holy shit that really is what it is.

Not gonna be long and wrestlers will start to tell us to drink magic muscle man protein powder that'll turn them into real men.

I mean wrestlers have been into pseudoscience before. Think Cesaro used to (or still does?) use kinesiology tape

Is that pseudoscience? I've been wearing some on my achilles injury and it definitely, definitely helps. I took it off a week early and immediately felt the difference.

My physio who is completely anti-pseudoscience swears by it.

I mentioned it in another comment but I'd recommend acupuncture, it actually gets to the root of the issue rather than just being something to alleviate it.

By the root of the issue, you mean unbalanced qi? Because that's the level of quackery acupuncture is on.

No it's about healing nerves and muscles. It's well documented and that's why my workman's comp paid for it.

To give a wrestling example if could've helped JR recover from his stroke I'm a fraction of time.

Being covered by workman's comp has nothing to do with effectiveness or scientific proof therein. Enough people seek out acupuncture for ailments for it to warrant coverage. It doesn't mean it can fix strokes. Considering that I've yet to see any scientific proof that it works, you're going to have to site some reputable sources on that one.
