Is Acupuncture Safe?
Acupuncture is a natural, drug-free therapy, with no side effects except feelings of relaxation and well-being. Acupuncture uses the insertion of thin, sterile, filiform/solid needles into specific points on the body called acupuncture points. There is little risk of infection from acupuncture needles because they are sterile, used once, and then discarded.
