The optimal placebo-needle:

• looks like a real acupuncture needle
• appears as though the skin is being penetrated, even though it is not
• can be applied at an acupuncture point
• is convincing to the patient

The Streitberger Placebo-needle is indistinguishable from a real acupuncture needle and validated, it is the best placebo control for a single-blind randomized clinical trial (RCT) of acupuncture.

A set of Streitberger Placebo-needles consists of:

• 100 Streitberger placebo-/sham-needles (0.30 x 30 mm / (Gauge 8 x 1.2")
• 100 verum acupuncture needles asia-med Special No. 16 (0.30 x 30 mm / (Gauge 8 x 1.2")
