Is there medicine on the acupuncture needles?

No. My Grandma asks me this each time I give her a treatment. (I love you, Grandma!)

Acupuncture needles are sterile and used only one time. There is no medicine on the needles.

I truly believe your body knows how to heal itself. But It takes time and sometimes we need to get out of the way (so to speak) and not rush the process. Acupuncture helps “wake up” your body’s innate healing abilities and can jump start the healing process.  To learn a bit more about how acupuncture works, click here.
