The Western name ACUPUNCTURE has Latin roots, and is not the name given to the method by the Chinese, who called it chen chiu.

Acupuncture has its origins in China, dating back more than 2,500 years. Acupuncture involves stimulation of certain points on or under the skin, mostly with ultrafine needles that are manipulated manually.

361 acupuncture points were originally identified for stimulation, but today approximately 2,000 points are recognized by licensed acupuncturists.

Modern stainless steel acupuncture needles vary in length from a half-inch up to 8 inches, depending on which function they have, but
these slender stimulators aren't much thicker than 0.01 inches...that's thin!

Bill uses ONLY sterile, single use disposable needles.
