Acupuncture Side Effects?

By Chris Lawrence

Not really, it is a very safe way of aiding the body to encourage healing.

If done right, acupuncture barely invokes any real side effects. Some people sense a brief stinging feeling, like a needle prick, while the needle is introduced. Other people have a small ache around the needle after it is introduced.

Some individuals my also feel a sting around the place where the needle was inserted.

A very few injured their patience by putting a needle into a major organ.

It is very common with the first one or two processes to have a feeling of deep relaxation or even disorientation right after the procedure. These side effects will wear off within 24 to 48 hours.

Make sure you speak to your acupuncturist throughout the procedure. Your comfort is a essential. The more you speak to them, the more the acupuncturist will be able to assist you.

A couple of people have experienced some more serious side effects, dizziness, excessive sweating, and nausea are some of the accounted side effects.

There have even been a few cases reported where individuals lost awareness. However, these issues will clear up on their own. There will be no lasting side effects for the individual. - 15437
