Does it hurt?
In general, the answer is no it does not hurt. There is potential to feel ones more than others but at no point will you be left in an uncomfortable state. General rule of thumb, if you do feel a needle, the feeling either goes away or you don’t mind the
sensation (heavy, warm) then I don’t mind it.
If it’s needles, cups, body position, temperature of your body, music etc and you’re not digging it. We pivot and come up with a new plan.
You will be left with a call button if I leave the room to let you marinate with the needles in.
