Your Q&A on Altra / MyAcu Acupuncture Needles

What makes stainless steel needles better than copper or aluminum ones?

Stainless steel is a game-changer! Here’s why:

Stronger and Tougher: No bending or snapping under pressure. These needles stay sharp and reliable.
No Rust Worries: Stainless steel resists corrosion, unlike copper or aluminum, so you can count on them to stay in great shape.
Gentle on Skin: Less likely to cause irritation or allergies, making them safe even for sensitive patients.
Smooth Insertion: Polished to perfection for a clean, comfortable experience every time.
