The Experience of Acupuncture
Acupuncture involves the insertion of thin, sterile, single-use, and disposable needles into the skin. These needles are the primary method in which energy is unblocked throughout the body.
First-time patients are typically surprised to discover how enjoyable acupuncture is. The practitioner begins with a thorough interview about all aspects of your health. After a diagnosis, you’ll be made comfortable on a table or chair in a relaxing room.
After the needles are in place you will be given time to rest, usually 20 to 45 minutes. During this time many patients experience a floating or heavy sensation, but typically feel comfortable, relaxed, and sometimes fall asleep. After your treatment, you will very likely feel a sense of well being and relaxation.
