What Acupuncture Feels Like
Most people are surprised by how gentle acupuncture feels. Sensations are usually mild and short-lived, such as a soft ache, warmth or heaviness around the area. Many people feel deeply relaxed during and after treatment, and some describe a sense of calm or lightness that continues into the day. Acupuncture is always tailored to your comfort level. Needles are very fine, and they can be adjusted or removed if anything feels too strong. Your experience is checked in with throughout the session, so you feel informed, safe and in control.
