Acupuncture is a component of the health care system of China that can be traced back at least 5,000 years. Needle your way to better health with acupuncture, curative practice calls for the painless insertion of tiny pins into distinct points on the body. Acupuncture generally involves several weekly or fortnightly treatments. Most courses consist of up to 12 sessions.
A visit to an acupuncturist will involve an exam and an assessment of the patient's condition, the insertion of needles, and advice on self-care. Most sessions last about 30 minutes. As each needle is inserted the patient should feel them, but initially without pain. However, when the needle reaches the right depth there should be a deep aching sensation. Sometimes the needles are heated or stimulated with electricity after insertion. Once inserted, the needles will remain there for about twenty minutes.
