Many people find acupuncture effective in treating complaints as diverse as pain, wrinkles and mental health problems. Formal evidence on its effectiveness, however, isn’t clear.

Acupuncture is a form of Chinese medicine that uses fine needles to treat a range of physical and mental conditions. According to practitioners, energy (qi) travels through interconnecting pathways (meridians) in the body and causes health issues when they become blocked; blockages are cleared by inserting acupuncture needles at specific points in the skin, restoring energy flow and improving health.

Most people experience minimal discomfort during acupuncture. The needles are very fine, much thinner than injection needles: and many people feel a dull ache or tingling sensation at insertion points, followed by deep relaxation during the session.

Side effects are rare, but may include pain, bleeding or bruising where the needles have punctured the skin, dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea.
