Kim K's face plastered with needles during acupuncture session


Lol we can't have enough from this babe... can we? First, it was the blood facial, now needles sticking out of her face, ears and neck? IT seems dangerous and painful, yet she is so relaxed, so i am guessing it is safe! The pregnant reality star Tweeted this photo of her during acupuncture session.  for those who do not know the meaning of acupuncture, click and read after the cut for more...

Acupuncture is a collection of procedures which involves the stimulation of points on the body using a variety of techniques, such as penetrating the skin with needles that are then manipulated manually or by electrical stimulation. It is one of the key components of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), and is among the oldest healing practices in the world. According to the traditional Chinese medicine approach, stimulating specific acupuncture points corrects imbalances in the flow of qi through channels known as meridians. Scientific investigation has not found any histological or physiological correlates for traditional Chinese concepts such as qi, meridians and acupuncture points, and some contemporary practitioners needle the body foregoing the traditional Chinese approach.
and i also learnt that acupuncture is used to boost the collagen and elastin level in the body, and instead of a surgical face lift, you can do acupunture..

well, this is not for me as i am natural scared of needles..lmao
