Most acupuncture needles are placed shallow, often just under the skin. In some areas, such as the hips or glutes, needles may be placed deeper, sometimes up to 2 inches. Depth is chosen carefully based on the area treated, anatomy, individual body type, and your comfort. Established safety standards guide typical depth for each area.
