Most people find acupuncture relaxing — some even fall asleep! You may feel a brief dull ache, warmth, or tingling, especially if an area is blocked, but it’s usually mild and passes quickly. We always tailor your treatment to your comfort, and thinner needles can be used if you’re sensitive.
-
Yes, we offer gentle pediatric care for children and teens. Acupuncture can be very helpful, but we understand that some kids may be hesitant about needles. That’s why we also use non-needle techniques such as gua sha, tuina (Chinese medical massage), and craniosacral therapy. Treatments are always supportive, age-appropriate, and focused on creating a sense of safety and comfort.
