Meridius is our own brand of complementary medicine products. With the growing demand for a more traditional style needle the Meridius Copper & Silver Series was born, thorough testing has been carried out by our in-house acupuncturists so we can guarantee quality and reliability with every use. The copper handle is ideal for traditional practitioners. The needle itself is made from high-quality surgical stainless steel, ideal for strong, professional needles. Chinese copper handle Copper handles were the dominant style before plastic technology became widely used. For many traditional practitioners, copper-handled needles are still preferred. With a loop at the top as typical of Chinese needles, these are ideal for use with moxibustion as well as electro-acupuncture. Comfortable and convenient These stainless steel needles have a silicone coating ensuring a comfortable experience for the patient and greater ease with needle placement. Every needle is individually packaged and comes with a guide tube for even greater precision. EO gas sterilisation keeps these needles safe to use for three years from production date; perfect for occasional users as well as regular practitioners.
