Manual Acupuncture
Features of Manual Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the insertion of thin metal needles into acupuncture points. The needles are hair-thin, solid, sterile and disposed of after each treatment. In manual acupuncture, manual manipulation are used to induce the De-qi, which is often translated to “obtaining the qi” or “arriving at the qi”, a heaviness or numbness, a soreness or achiness similar to a slight cramp. Manual acupuncture is sometime called traditional acupuncture.
