Acupuncture seldom causes any discomfort but each person has a different level of sensitivity. Most patients don't feel the needle being inserted at all. But some patients report feeling a slight sensation of being pinched. Occasionally, sharp, or electric sensations occur for a moment when a sensory nerve is stimulated. This is not dangerous and does not last. You will find the experience of receiving acupuncture relaxing, and you might feel like taking a nap while the treatment is happening.

Recently, the treatment of moxibustion is done by an indirect method. The Moxa is not placed directly on the skin. Instead, we use a moxa- sheet between the moxa and the skin, which stimulates the body with a gentle warmth. With this method there is no burning or scar formation.
