An acupuncture needle is a thin, solid, sterile instrument used to penetrate specific points on the body to stimulate natural healing.
Primary Functions
• Stimulate Acupoints: Penetrates the skin along traditional energy pathways (meridians) or nerve-rich locations to trigger local and systemic responses.
• Release Endorphins and Pain Relief: Activates sensory nerves that signal the central nervous system to release natural pain-relieving chemicals like endorphins and enkephalins.
• Increase Local Blood Flow: Triggers local axon reflexes and the release of neuropeptides (such as CGRP) to rush blood to tight, injured, or inflamed tissues.
• Wind Connective Tissue: Manual or electrical rotation of the needle twists surrounding collagen bundles, stretching connective tissue to create a therapeutic signal (de qi).
