SMAC Partners

Lhasa OMS

Your acupuncture supply SMAC partner

Almost 40 years ago, Thomas Riihimaki started Lhasa OMS (opens in a new tab) with a single mission: to support acupuncturists in every possible way, with a focus on supplying the tools they need to treat patients safely and effectively. Tom built relationships with the highest-quality acupuncture needle and supply manufacturers in the world.

With over 9,000 products in stock, Lhasa OMS is the largest distributor of acupuncture supplies in the United States and the exclusive U.S. importer of many of the most popular, highest-quality needles, including SEIRIN, DBC, Hwato and Tai-Chi. They also distribute 16 of the most popular Chinese single herbs and formulas, and many leading brands of CBD hemp extract products. Order online, over the phone or at a conference.

We are proud to partner with a company that offers an unrivaled selection of high-quality products, stellar customer service and continuing education opportunities.
