Today I tried self-acupuncture using a little bit of free time✨. The spot I targeted this time was "Shakutaku". It's called the "He-Sea point of the lung" and is said to be perfect for times when throat colds are going around. If you aren't familiar with it yet, please look it up 😊

In my opinion, the effect of acupuncture can reach the whole body even with just one needle, so I'm in the camp that thinks there's no need to use many needles. Also, I think many people imagine acupuncture as something painful, with lots of needles being stuck in, but in reality, sometimes the needles just rest on the skin and aren't even inserted at all😌

When I actually try it, it's interesting to feel my body relax and move on its own. If you incorporate it into your self-care routine, you might be able to get a little refresh time even during busy days🍀. If you're interested, please give it a try!
