ASP Gold version: gold-plated steel

Invented in collaboration with Dr Paul NOGIER, the ASP or "Aiguille Semi-Permanente" is used to perform ear acupuncture. It has been marketed for more than 20 years by SEDATELEC, and the shape of this small needle is the basis for the company logo.

The ear-acupuncture Needle currently remains the most widely used and most effective way of stimulating auricular acupuncture points.

The ASP needle is composed of a small stainless steel (gold plated) needle housed in a plastic injector. This injector allows the practitioner to grasp and easily and precisely implant the needle into the patient's ear. The needle inserted into the external ear in this way avoids any risk of contamination.

After placement, the needle can be protected by an adhesive patch (spare patches are also availible in our store).

The needle ensures a permanent action for as long as it remains in place. A black plaster housed in the injector can be turned around in the implanted needle.
