Oriental Medicine is a complex form of medicine that has been practiced in several countries around the world for hundreds of years. As a result there are many valid schools of thought and traditions within the profession. In order to obtain the best health care you should seek a practitioner who has been comprehensively trained in acupuncture. All too often, chiropractors, massage therapists and even MD's will take a short (as little as 2 weeks) clinic or course training and then advertise that they "do" acupuncture. Over 30 states have passed statutes or regulation setting standards for the practice of acupuncture by professional acupuncturist. If you live in a regulated state, you should seek a Licensed, Registered or Certified Acupuncturist. If you live in an unregulated jurisdiction, it would be best to locate an individual licensed in another state or certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM)
