Three kinds of visit

Most visits blend two of these. Your acupuncturist says what comes next before doing it.

Fine needles
Hair-thin, single-use needles placed shallow, a few at a time, with a lot of touch before and between.
- Often out again within minutes
- You see the needle first
Fine needles
Tools only
Rounded tools that press, tap and stroke the skin. Nothing is inserted, and it is a full visit.
- A good first visit if needles worry you
- Also used between needle visits
Tools only
Moxibustion
Dried mugwort warmed near the skin to bring gentle heat to one spot, added to a visit when you want it.
- Never used without asking
- Skipped if smoke bothers you
Moxibustion

Not sure where to begin?

Begin with tools only. You can add a needle at the next visit, or never.
