Is acupuncture painful...?

Not really and it does work!

no, it's very relaxing
Needles piercing the skin? Nah, I'm sure it's fun.
at first
It doesnt hurt if the acupuncturist knows what s/he is doing. It just feels like a little poke...but if they do it wrong it can hurt.

it works sometimes....I guess its worth a try
if it's done by me, YES...in fact, I hit my veins a lot...

but I haven't studied acupuncture at all and have just decided to poke myself with a needle...

On the other hand, an experienced acupuncturist would have studied where all the meridians and veins are...and though everyone's body is different, it should be safe to say that an experienced acupuncturist can do a pretty good job with you...

It might still hurt at first though, since you may not be used to the sensation or the idea of needles in your body...and them being there for a while too...

but it's all good in the end...^___^ tough it out...I'm sure you'll be addicted to the good effects of acupuncture
