ABSTRACT:
An acupuncture needle guide assembly includes a needle affixed to a handle which frictionally engages a tubular housing encasing the needle. The housing can be withdrawn from the needle only in a direction opposite the point of the needle. A guide member is insertably received in an open end of the housing opposite its engagement with the needle handle. The guide member includes a passage coaxial with the needle to permit the longitudinal movement of the needle through the guide member. The guide member separates into two detached halves upon removal of the housing, so that the entire guide and housing can be removed from the needle while the needle remains inserted in the skin.
