An adult-sized model ear used for instructional purposes was designed with input from an acupuncturist and features physical landmarks which are easy to identify.

This provides students and instructors with a realistic platform to locate and needle auricular acupuncture points and refine their needle insertion technique before treating live patients. The durable material can accommodate insertion of traditional acupuncture needles (with or without insertion tubes) and semi-permanent indwelling ear needles. Our ear model can withstand hundreds of needle insertions without damaging the integrity of the material.

The real life-like model ear measures 1 5/8" wide, 2 3/4" tall, by 1 1/2" deep. It is manufactured at our facility and is made out of silicone rubber.

Our practice pad allows students to refine their needle insertion technique before treating live patients. It includes a firmer, deep nodule to replicate a trigger point or knot in a muscle. Made from multiple density silicone, our training aids can withstand hundreds of needle insertions without damaging the integrity of the material. The full-sized practice pad measures 3.25” x 5.25”. This allows students the opportunity for direct needle insertion or to thread the needle under simulated subcutaneous tissue.
