I typically combine acupuncture and massage techniques together when doing treatments for double the benefit. With regards to pain, if you are really sensitive, insist on seirin or asia med needles. They are extra thin and silicone lubricated and are practically ouchless. Hope that helps. I personally find that acupuncture works wonderfully well for headaches.

The reason for this is because the needles they use are very fine. Much finer than syringe needles. I think most people get used to it pretty quickly. Once you realize it's not going to hurt, you start to relax and become more comfortable. Some insurance providers do cover acupuncture under certain circumstances. If you want to know if your health insurance covers acupuncture, give them a call or visit their web site. You should be able to find out for sure that way. Be well! JP Ali,
