Practice by Others
No law exists which licenses, regulates, or prohibits acupuncture.
The practice of acupuncture is within the scope of a medical doctor without specific training requirements or registration.
A chiropractor who practices acupuncture can register with the
board. The board accepts and records certification from schools
but does not itself certify the practice of acupuncture.
NOTE: Look for a physician with
formal training in the practice of acupuncture. Acupuncture and
Oriental medicine is an art and a science that takes years to master.
While any licensed physician can stick needles into you, for a positive
experience and results, find an acupuncturist with experience treating a similar condition (with acupuncture) to what you have.
