Does acupuncture have side effects?

Acupuncture is generally well tolerated when performed by a qualified practitioner using sterile, single-use needles. Some people may experience mild side effects such as slight soreness, minor bruising, tiredness, or temporary light-headedness after treatment.

These effects are usually short-term and often settle on their own. Before your acupuncture session, let your practitioner know about your health history, medications, or any concerns so they can tailor the treatment to your needs.
