What Is Dong shi needling?
DS Acupuncture (also known as Tung’s Acupuncture) is a specialised lineage-based acupuncture system developed by Dong Jingchang.
Unlike classical acupuncture that follows the traditional 12 meridians, DS acupuncture system uses a unique set of extra points — primarily located on the hands and legs.
What makes it powerful is its distal approach:
We often treat pain away from the painful area.
For example:
- Lower back pain may be treated on the hand
- Shoulder pain may be treated on the leg
- Sciatica may be addressed distally
This allows effective treatment while avoiding irritated or inflamed regions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Dong Shi Acupuncture (also called Tung’s Acupuncture) is a unique acupuncture system using specialised extra points, primarily on the hands and legs, to treat pain and internal conditions effectively.
Most patients find Dong’s Acupuncture very manageable.
You may feel a brief pinch when the needle is inserted. After that, you might experience sensations such as aching, tingling, heaviness, fullness, or a mild radiating feeling. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, these sensations are known as “Qi” — a normal therapeutic response indicating that Qi is being activated and stagnation is beginning to clear.
These feelings are usually temporary and are considered a positive sign that the body is responding and circulation is improving.
Because Dong’s Acupuncture often uses distal points (away from the inflamed or painful area), treatment is generally comfortable while still producing effective results.
Traditional acupuncture follows the 12 meridian system.
DS acupuncture system uses its own specialised point system and often treats pain distally (away from the painful area).
Many patients notice improvement during or immediately after their first session, particularly for pain-related conditions. However, some may take more sessions to improve especially chronic issues.
