Acupuncture (Yi Jing - Acupuncture) The ancient Chinese Yi Jing acupuncture is the most impressive form of acupuncture and is characterized by its immediate effect (in the case of localizable complaints, a relief of symptoms usually occurs within seconds). The acupuncture needles are placed at defined locations on the body surface and remain there for about 20-40 minutes. During this time, the person lying down also experiences a general and restful feeling of relaxation.
