What are the best quality acupuncture needles from your experience?

[Danny]

I have been looking around, and there are TONS of brands of acupuncture needles. What type of needles do you guys use, or do you know they use, for Daoist styles of acupuncture?

Yes i also use DBC needles made in Korea (not china). Chinese ones are okay, but in my experience they sometimes have bad needles which aren’t sharpened so i have to throw those away. the korean ones always are good quality needles.

JBC all the way huh!

i tend to go towards any of the korean brands, as they have better quality control. china has everything so it is hard to find something good, unless you know – they have good quality and really poor quality, so that’s why i choose to go the korean route.
