How often is fire needling done?

Currently specific patient, specific disease, specific situation, specific treatment. Generally fire needles are lanced once in 1-2 weeks, because of the trauma of fire needles, when the last lancing is done and the scars fall off before lancing the next one. It also has to do with the different thickness of the fire needles. If it is a case of taking a carbuncle boil, a thick fire needle should be used to pierce the root of the carbuncle boil, which is usually done once and there is no question of zapping it once every few days. If the purpose is to is to support Yang and benefit Qi, strengthen and health care, this condition is to select acupuncture points with health care, such as Guan Yuan, Zhen Men, Foot San Li and Zhong Gui, etc., and lance them once every 2 weeks. If the pain is caused by joint pain or muscle injury, or pain caused by wind, cold and dampness, it can be zapped once every 1 week. In addition, according to the patient’s constitution, if the patient has a better constitution and is stronger, the interval can be shorter. If the patient is weaker, the interval is longer and the stimulation is lighter, which is also a tonic method.
