Accessories that make handling bulk needles effortless
Revolutionary Accessories Unique to Acufast
Sometimes you don’t need all 10 needles in a pouch during a treatment. Or maybe you need a place to put an open pouch of needles without risk of contamination. Or perhaps palpating to locate points is awkward while holding an open pouch of bulk needles.
However you needle, the Acufast accessories are part of a unique system for handling, preserving and using bulk-packaged needles. The Acuclip, Acubase and Needle Wrist Launcher are designed to work together to reduce accidental needle drop and maintain a safe, aseptic field for an open-pouch of needles during and between treatments.
Fewer dropped or unused needles means less burden on the planet, and more of your hard-earned dollars saved.
Needles that heal both your patients and the planet
2 Boxes of Acufast Plants 1 Tree
Acupuncture needles are small but mighty. You witness their mightiness and their ability to heal everyday in your practice. But what if your needles had the ability to heal beyond your clinic walls? This was our vision when we decided to align with One Tree Planted and donate 1 tree for every 2 boxes of Acufast used in clinic.
Why trees?
An average of 2,000 needles used per month, over a 20-year career will plant a minimum of 240 trees!
