Some doctors, make the needles vibrate other doctors hold a candle near the needle to make it hot. If you have a hearing loss, they put the needles behind your ear. These needles are not like a sewing needle or the ones a regular doctor uses to give you a shot. They are extremely thin. Only the tip of the needle pierces the skin. It doesn't go in very deep.
