Is acupuncture painful?

Needling sensation is not separate from the skill of the acupuncturist and the constitution of the patient. In our practice acupuncture is not painful. We customize our tools and techniques to the sensitivity and constitution of each individual patient to ensure comfort and relaxation. For children and adults who are energy or needle sensitive we use FDA approved painless needles, non-penetrative techniques or other methods of stimulation without needles. We will make sure that your treatment is completely comfortable.
