What Is Acupuncture Sensation?
Many traditional Chinese acupuncture practitioners may manipulate needles and look for acupuncture sensations, called “De Qi” (arriving of Qi) in terms of Chinese Medicine. When Qi arrives, the patient experiences a tingling, numb, heavy, distending, or traveling feeling along the meridian pathway. It is a good indication that your body is responding to the treatment and the body’s healing powers have been stimulated. Most people find this relaxing both during and after the treatment.
