How does acupuncture feel?
Acupuncture needles are extremely fine, not much thicker than a human hair. In most cases insertion is practically painless or not even felt. In others cases there may be a brief sensation of tingling, warmth, heaviness, or the feeling of the bioelectricity (chi energy) moving along the acupuncture pathway. Most people find acupuncture very relaxing and even fall asleep during a treatment.
