Frequently Asked Questions
What types of acupuncture needles does Lhasa OMS carry and how do they differ?
Lhasa OMS offers the most extensive selection of acupuncture needles in the United States, featuring top brands such as world-renowned SEIRIN, the #1 Korean Needle - DBC, Hwato, Tai Chi, and Sedatelec ASP Needles from France. We carry a wide range of needle gauges, lengths, and handle types to suit different treatment styles — from hand and foot therapy to facial rejuvenation, sports therapy, and scar treatments. Whether you prefer silicone-coated, stainless steel, or copper-handle needles, you’ll find the perfect fit for your practice.
Are Lhasa OMS’ acupuncture needles and needles for other therapies FDA-approved and sterile?
Yes. All acupuncture needles and specialty needles offered by Lhasa OMS are sterile, single-use, and FDA-approved for professional acupuncture treatments. We only partner with globally trusted manufacturers who meet or exceed U.S. safety and quality standards, ensuring your patients receive the safest and most effective care possible.
Can I order acupuncture needles in bulk for my clinic?
Absolutely. Lhasa OMS offers bulk blister packaging on select needles for busy clinics or treatments that require multiple needles. We also offer discounted pricing on select needles and brands when purchased by the case. Bulk needle packaging is available to meet the needs of clinics of all sizes and allows practitioners to save on per-unit costs while ensuring they’re always stocked with the supplies they need.
What is the difference between SEIRIN J-Type and D-Type needles?
The main difference lies in handle design and needle style. SEIRIN J-Type needles, commonly used in clinics, feature a stainless steel shaft, color-coded plastic handle, and plastic guide tube. Available in various gauges and lengths, they’re preferred for quick, precise insertion in general body acupuncture.
SEIRIN D-Type needles also have a stainless steel shaft and color-coded plastic handle but come in fewer gauges, a 15 mm length, and lack a guide tube. Used mainly by experienced practitioners, they allow greater tactile sensitivity and control for freehand or shallow needling.
What size acupuncture needle is best for my patients?
The best acupuncture needle size depends on your treatment style, the area being needled, and patient comfort. Most body points use 0.25 mm needles in 25–40 mm lengths. Facial and hand acupuncture typically requires shorter, thinner needles for precision. Longer needles (75 mm+) are used for patients with more muscle mass or points needing deeper insertion. Lhasa OMS offers a wide range of needle diameters and lengths, making it easy to choose the right size for every technique.
Lhasa OMS is proud to be the exclusive importer of SEIRIN, DBC, Tai Chi, and Hwato needles, the highest quality, best value needles from Japan, Korea, and China. They are of the highest quality because of extensive testing and quality control measures taken by each brand. We offer these needles at unsurpassed prices due to the long standing relationships we've built and ability to order and stock large quantities. Along with these top brands, you'll find acupuncture needles for every practitioner, patient, and treatment type.
