"I've used Tempo needles for some years now in my Japanese acupuncture classes in the College of Classical Chinese Medicine at NUNM in Portland, Oregon. The students love them compared to the needles they have to use in the student clinic and other classes. They provide a comfortable insertion, and their tensile properties make them easy to manipulate. And on top of that they are affordable for any budget. I happily endorse Tempo needles."
