    How thick can acupuncture needles get?

    Sir,my friend use needles like 125mm length along the skin surface.is this correct method.?

    • @acupuncturemasterclass

      Karthik, thanks for watching. Regarding your friends needling technique - there are many different needling techniques in Acupuncture. "Threading" is a common technique which involves inserting a long needle superficially through the skins surface - often joining adjacent acupuncture points. It is not a common technique in a clinic setting but it has its application. I hope this helps!

    Is the needle reusable?

    • @acupuncturemasterclass
      @acupuncturemasterclass  2 роки тому +3

      Needles these days are generally one-time use only. No need to reuse needles anymore! It's much safer to use the single-use needles - run from any acupuncturist who is re-using needles! ;-0 Thanks for watching.

    The terminology was already over my head, this is actually not a basic video, this video is for people who already know what he’s talking about.

      It's very specialised. You need to know something about acupuncture

    I am surprised to hear these measurements 😮 your cun is way too small than what i know a cun is. You are saying a cun is 25 mlm????

    • @acupuncturemasterclass
      @acupuncturemasterclass  Рік тому +2

      One cun is usually equal to 25mm (stated at 0:57 in the video). Which is why many 1cun needles are 25mm in length. To be clear - 25mm is not 1/4 of a cm. 25mm is 2.5cm (1cm is 10mm). I hope this clears up the confusion.

    • @Random-xw1fg
      @Random-xw1fg Рік тому

      @Acupuncture Masterclass it absolutely does. I think my brain had a minute freeze where I thought the cm is a 100 mm. Totally my bad. I should cut down on carbs to avoid such gaffs 😎
