Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Most patients feel a distinct sensation — often a mild ache, tingling, heaviness, or dull pressure at the needle site — rather than sharp pain. This response is a normal and expected part of treatment, and is generally considered a sign that the treatment is engaging the tissue as intended. Needles are hair-thin, and this sensation typically settles quickly into a feeling of deep relaxation.
