Many people avoid acupuncture because they think needles will hurt. Acupuncture needles are fine. They are about twice the size of a human hair. They are also ten times smaller than a regular hypodermic needle.
Most people find acupuncture calm and relaxing. Patients often describe the needle sensation as a tingling or dull ache. This is a sign that the Qi is being stimulated and released, indicating that the treatment is working. At Omnia, we also offer Electroacupuncture and Fu Needle treatments, which minimise any fear or discomfort caused by needles.
