Acupuncture Process

The physical process involves putting very fine, pre-sterilized, disposable needles in different points of your body. Patients rarely feel the needle going in and rarely feel the needle once it has been placed. The patient will then rest for 20-30 minuets with the needles still inserted. They are then removed. It is a very relaxing process and most patients feel like they have had a nice nap afterward. Some patients do fall asleep. Acupuncture is extremely safe when preformed by a professional acupuncturist. An occasional small bruise is the most alarming thing that usually happens. Acupuncture is a full service therapy and can treat most diseases. The most important thing about TCM and Acupuncture is that is can be used as preventive medicine to ward off disease and maintain health and longevity.
