Acupuncture is divided into several types according to the purpose of care.
There is constitutional acupuncture used after 8-constitution diagnosis, electroacupuncture used in pain care, growth acupuncture used for children's growth, Dongan facial acupuncture (Jeongan acupuncture) used on the face, and Ppaemona acupuncture and lipolysis acupuncture used for weight management.
In respiratory care, lung meridian points such as Jungbu, Cheondol, and Ukjung are stimulated.
Acupuncture is done together with pharmacopuncture, cupping, moxibustion, Chuna manual therapy, and physical therapy.

Common questions

Acupuncture vs. electroacupuncture

With ordinary acupuncture the inserted needles are left in place or stimulated by hand, while with electroacupuncture an electrical stimulus is connected to the inserted needles. This page describes electroacupuncture as acupuncture used in pain care, but it is not necessarily added to every acupuncture treatment. Whether it is used, and at what intensity, is decided after looking at the purpose of care and your response to stimulation, so if electrical stimulation concerns you, please tell us before the procedure.

How many days apart to receive it

There is no single interval that applies to all acupuncture treatment. Even on this page the intervals for constitutional acupuncture, growth acupuncture, Dongan acupuncture, and Ppaemona acupuncture are given differently, and electroacupuncture in pain care is not presented with a fixed number of sessions. We check which acupuncture you are receiving and for what purpose, and how you responded after the previous session, before setting the next appointment, and it can also differ by branch.

Common reactions after treatment

The treated area may feel stiff for a while, and a small amount of bleeding, bruising, or fatigue may appear. If you see bleeding, press gently with clean gauze, and if you feel dizzy, do not stand up right away; rest first and tell the staff. If pain or swelling keeps getting worse, or symptoms unlike your usual ones continue, such as changes in sensation or movement, do not put up with it; have it checked at the clinic or at a nearby medical institution.
