What you can expect:
Most people (even those afraid of needles) are surprised at how painless acupuncture is. The needles are extremely thin, not at all like those used for medical injections or shots. The sensitivity of different acupuncture points may vary. Some points are not felt at all, while others may feel like the brief sting of an insect bite. Once the needles are in, no pain is felt. A treatment usually lasts 15 – 20 minutes. For your protection, all needles are sterile, one-time-use, and disposable.
