I moved to Port Orchard in 2003-2004 from Minneapolis, MN, where I taught and practiced for 10 years. The foundation of my work; Shiatsu-Anma, is a particular style of Japanese medical acupressure developed by DoAnn T. Kaneko L.Ac, PhD. Dr Kaneko learned Anma from his parents and was formally trained in Shiatsu and Acupuncture at Toyo Acupuncture College in Japan.
I served as assistant instructor with Dr. Kaneko in Santa Monica, California prior to becoming a Certified Instructor in Shiatsu-Anma. While teaching and practicing Shiatsu in Minneapolis, I joined a small study group in the kitchen of Duc Kieu, a Vietnamese physician and Buddhist. Dr. Duc was trained traditionally, apprenticing with his father, who apprenticed with his father, and so on, through several generations.
He lectured Acupuncture and Herbal medicine to five of us for 3 years, sharing a family tradition and producing voluminous notation for our benefit. My formal training and advanced degree was taken at The American Academy of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (AAAOM) in Roseville, Minnesota.

Acupuncture needles are very thin, hairlike, or filiform needles.
You may feel a slight pinch when they are inserted and removed.
This sensation is nothing like that produced with a hypodermic needle used for injections.
Most people experience some sensation while the needles are in place.
Some may feel a tingling, or distending sensation, others a mild pulsing, and others feel nothing.
Laser "acupuncture" uses concentrated laser light to stimulate vital points or treat broad areas of the body by stimulating tissues at different levels from the skin and deeper into the body.

Acupuncture is not entirely painless, but the needles used are much thinner and lighter than the needles used for injection.
Most people experience a dull, heavy, distending, or "electric" sensation from acupuncture needles, not "pain".
If you are in an acute phase of an injury or illness, the acupuncture points are likely to be more sensitive.
Acupuncture is a medical procedure, therefore acupuncture and related services are provided as medically necessary and are billed according to the amount of time spent with a patient.
