Acupuncture is a style of traditional medicine that covers a variety of practices, such as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Five Element Acupuncture. Each style can be beneficial, depending on what you need.
However, when looking for an acupuncturist, there are a few useful things to look out for to ensure they're reputable.
🌱 Their qualifications - look for acupuncturists that are licensed and have completed at least a 3 year BA Hons degree/licentiate degree level from an accredited college.
🌱 Their experience - sounds obvious, but look for a well experienced acupuncturist and always read reviews.
🌱 Their accreditation - in the UK, acupuncturists can become members of the British Acupuncture Council (BAcC), ensuring they have completed accredited training and adhere to professional standards. Choosing a BAcC-registered acupuncturist can provide reassurance that the practitioner has undergone rigorous education and clinical training.
