Hello. I am a guy 18 years old and I know a little about acupuncture. I have a basic clue about what it's all about, like why it is done, how it is done, etc... What I don't know is where those spots where the needles are being stuck in are? And how many are they? You don't have to hurry with the answer, but I would really like to know this.

It would take me hours to explain where the points are exactly, but let me say that they cover your whole body. Those are the spots in which the "meridians" are close to the skin surface. There are at least 300 spots I can think of. (By the way I am an acupuncturist). Almost all of them are paired, but there are exceptions.
