FAQ •••
Does Acupuncture hurt?
Acupuncture is relatively painless. Acupuncture needles are much thinner
than the syringes used in hospitals. Most people only feel a slight prick
upon insertion. During treatment, many people say they experience a feeling
of energy rushing through the body. For most people, acupuncture treatment
is a deeply relaxing experience, and something they look forward to in
the same way they would look forward to getting a massage.
Is there any risk of
needle contamination?
Modern day acupuncturists use disposable needles, so there is no risk
of contamination. A brand new sterile needle is used for each insertion,
and once removed it is discarded into a medical waste receptacle.
What conditions can
Acupuncture treat?
Acupuncture can be used to treat almost any disease. Please see the list
of health conditions which are effectively
treated with acupuncture
and Chinese Medicine.
