Is acupuncture painful?

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