To be honest I never had it done for candida specifically. I had it done for a bunch of other things, including a sharp pain in my groin that I thought, at the time, was some sort of muscle/tendon pull. It actually turned out to be a chronic infection/lymph congestion. The reason I know this now is because, while the acupuncture lessened the pain a bit, Colloidal Silver , Miracle-Mineral-Supplement and applying castor oil packs practically eliminated the pain. Acupuncture didn't even come close to that. Since I would classify candida as less of a 'physical' type injury and more of a systemic infection/imbalance/toxin overload with a bunch of variables, I don't think there's much of anything that acupuncture alone can do for it.

Hey girl. Thought I might mention that several on the yahoo asper forum have expressed strong conviction that acupuncture was a critical component to their progress.
