  • At first I bought 0.6mm and 0.9mm, but then I wanted to try something more stimulating, so I bought 1.2mm and 1.5mm
  • The expression I saw in a review, “Recommended for those who want to push the stiffness with their fingers and ‘push it deeper’” fits the description.
    • If the surface is hard, acupressure cannot reach deep into the body.
    • Apply a circular acupuncture needle to a hard area and after a while the area around the acupuncture needle will become warm and the surface stiffness will be relieved.
      • Perhaps the stimulation stimulates blood flow in the area.
  • As the surface softens, you will be able to recognize areas of deep-seated stiffness
  • Does 1.5mm hurt?
    • It doesn’t hurt.
    • If you press down hard enough, it feels like you’re pressing on a pressure point with a toothpick, but it disappears as soon as you relax.
    • The presence may be felt when the muscles are moved, for example, when you twist your waist, you may feel the acupuncture needles in your lower back.
    • As for my neck and shoulders, they’re stiff because I don’t move them enough.
    • It hurts when I lie down and put my weight on it hitting my lower back.
