What is Acupuncture Injection Therapy?
Acupuncture Injection Therapy (AIT) is a modern treatment combining traditional acupuncture with the therapeutic benefits of herbal medicine. In this method, a solution extracted and refined from pure herbal ingredients is injected into acupuncture points, meridians, or areas like blood vessels, joints, or affected tissues. This approach provides both the stimulatory effects of acupuncture and the long-lasting benefits of herbal medicine in one treatment, enhancing the overall efficacy compared to traditional acupuncture alone.
AIT is especially beneficial for those seeking a natural and holistic approach to health, leveraging traditional medicine’s wisdom with modern techniques for improved outcomes.

Areas :

Principles Behind the Therapy :
Unlike conventional large-volume chemical injections, this method uses small amounts of herbal solutions. It combines the benefits of acupuncture with the long-lasting therapeutic effects of herbal medicine, bypassing digestive strain and accelerating recovery.
This innovative approach ensures dual benefits—stimulative effects of acupuncture and direct medicinal action—while being eco-conscious through minimal raw material usage.
Precautions :
- Herbal Ingredients: Some herbal ingredients like cinnamon and ginseng that have warming or tonic effects may cause discomfort or pain.
- Slow Injection: It is recommended to inject the herbal solution slowly to avoid discomfort.
- Cold Solution: If the herbal solution is taken directly from the refrigerator, it may cause pain due to the cold temperature.
- Needle Gauge: A needle gauge between 29 and 30G is recommended for optimal treatment.
- Expiration Date: While the herbal solution can be stored for up to one year, it is advised to use it within 2-3 months after receiving it, as it contains natural herbal extracts.
- Storage: The herbal needle solution should be stored in the refrigerator at temperatures between 4–8°C.
- pH and Salt Adjustment: The herbal needle solution is provided with adjusted pH and salt concentrations for safety and effectiveness.
- Safety Testing: Before preparing the herbal needles, samples are taken for safety inspection and proper storage by AJ Soup.
- Temporary Stiffness: After treatment, you may experience temporary stiffness for up to 30 seconds in the treated area.
Side Effects :
Since the herbal ingredients are derived from natural sources, major side effects are rare. However, improper selection of acupuncture points or incorrect choice of herbal needles may delay absorption or, in rare cases, cause allergic reactions.
Additionally, if bee venom (for bee sting therapy) is used, there may be redness, itching, or an allergic response. While rare, sensitive individuals may experience shock reactions.
Frequently Asked Questions :
What kind of needles are used?
The needles used are made of stainless steel and are very fine (around 0.14mm), about the thickness of a hair. The needle size and technique are adjusted according to your body type and sensitivity, making it a nearly pain-free experience.
How deep do the needles go?
The needles are inserted very shallowly, about 0.2mm below the skin’s surface, targeting the autonomic nervous system. This helps to promote blood circulation, providing a warm and relaxing sensation. In some cases, deeper needles may be used depending on the symptoms.
Who is this treatment suitable for?
This treatment is suitable for people of all ages, from children to adults, including athletes. It’s particularly recommended for individuals who feel unwell despite normal test results, as the treatment helps enhance immunity and adjust the body from within through meridian therapy.
Are There Any Side Effects?
After the treatment, minor side effects like redness or swelling may occur. These symptoms usually subside naturally within a few hours to days and do not significantly interfere with daily life. However, for those with sensitive skin, these effects may last longer, so it’s important to follow pre- and post-treatment care guidelines.
