Important thing to remember is your patient asks their GP to have you as their preferred acupuncturist. Then you are off and running once a treatment and payment plan is negotiated with work cover.

I built a free clinical decision support tool for acupuncturists β€” would love feedback

Hey everyone β€” I'm Derek, AHPRA-registered acupuncturist from NSW, Australia. I've been building Medi-Chi (https://medichi.online) over the past year as a side project. You enter a Western condition, and it generates a full TCM treatment plan: pattern differentiation, point prescriptions with needling parameters, herbal formulas, and dietary recommendations. Every recommendation comes with PubMed citations pulled in real time β€” no made-up references.

It currently supports 14 acupuncture styles (Classical, Master Tung, Sa-am, Balance Method, Japanese, Jin Three-Needle, Esoteric, and more), has an AI tongue diagnosis feature, herb-drug interaction checking, and a 50-chapter Nèi Jīng study module. There's also a practitioner dashboard for managing patient cases and tracking treatments. Free tier gives you access to the reference tools; Premium unlocks the AI diagnosis engine.

I built it because I got tired of flipping between textbooks, PubMed, and my notes during clinic. It's not meant to replace clinical judgment β€” it's a second opinion that shows its sources. Would genuinely appreciate any feedback from practitioners who try it out. What's useful? What's missing? Happy to answer questions. πŸ™

πŸ”¬ TCM Research Spotlight
Electroacupuncture for Chronic Low Back Pain
A 2025 systematic review in JAMA Network Open found electroacupuncture at 2/100 Hz frequency significantly outperformed sham treatment for chronic LBP, with sustained benefits at 12-week follow-up. The study highlighted BL23, BL25, and GB30 as the most frequently selected points across 14 RCTs.

Acupuncture & Gut Microbiome Connection
Emerging research published in Frontiers in Medicine (2025) demonstrates that acupuncture at ST36 (Zusanli) modulates gut microbiota composition via vagal nerve pathways, increasing short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria. This supports the traditional understanding of ST36's role in strengthening the Spleen and Stomach.

WHO Updates on Auricular Acupuncture for Insomnia
The WHO has included auricular acupuncture in its updated recommendations for non-pharmacological insomnia management, citing moderate evidence from a meta-analysis of 22 trials (n=1,876). Shenmen, Heart, and Subcortex ear points showed the strongest effect sizes when combined with seed pressing protocols.
