The urge to pierce the human body is an inherent part of human nature and in one form or another has touched every civilization and culture known to man.
Types of piercing have varied widely as well as the reasons for the practice. For many it is the result of an irresistible desire to decorate the human body along with other forms of body art such as tattooing, branding and scarification. In some societies it can be a sign of wealth, position, status or even ownership, and in others it can be a rite of passage signifying a major event in a person's life.
Piercings can also be used as a means of heightening sexual pleasure or imposing chastity on a partner. And for many, body piercing is a way of stimulating the various chakras of the body.
Whatever the reasons, body piercing has undergone something of a western revival in modern times, although it never really went away. It just went underground as a result of western societies' attitudes and morals. It has now become socially acceptable again and continues to increase in popularity in a wide cross section of the community.
We at Sudden Rush Tattoo and Body Piercing understand your desire, and we strive to maintain the highest level of professionalism and expertise in all matters pertaining to body piercing. |
We use implant-grade, internally-threaded ASTM F-138 stainless steel (316LVM) jewelry for most piercings. Internally-threaded means less pain and trauma to you during insertion of the jewelry, a faster piercing process, and better healing.
Internally-threaded is the only type of jewelry used by quality piercing shops throughout the world, and is the only type of jewelry endorsed by the Association of Professional Piercers.
BEWARE of shops that use only cheaper externally-threaded "surgical stainless
steel" jewelry! They may charge a cheaper price, but they're also
using inferior jewelry that can actually HARM your piercing!
