Does Acupuncture hurt?

 Many people are often hesitant to explore this as a treatment option with the fear the needles or ‘pins’ will be painful or uncomfortable. The needles are as fine as a piece of hair and are often not felt at all, or only minDimally as they are inserted and removed.  On a very basic, physiological level they release endorphins into the blood stream and leave the patient feeling very relaxed and at ease.
