It refers to the insertion of thin needles into the body at specific points which have been empirically determined to have beneficial effects. Insertion is usually painless, and as energy is activated, may be accompanied by a sensation of warmth, tingling, or heaviness. Once the needles are in place, many people describe feeling a deep sense of calm and well-being.
Treatments induce a state of deep relaxation.
