What am I supposed to feel?

 

Acupuncture is a relatively painless procedure. Some people are more sensitive to the needles than others, but overall it's very tolerable.

 

You may feel a small pin-prick as the needle penetrates the skin at the surface. This sensation quickly diminishes. As the needle is brought to a deeper level, you may feel a dull ache, warmth, a slight itchiness around the needle, or a radiation of sensation for 15-35 seconds.
