How do you know what to look for when looking for an acupuncturist? This is a question I often get asked. The problem is that acupuncture, in common with many other complementary therapies is at present is unregulated. In fact Chiropractic and Osteopathy are the only therapies regulated by statute. This means that anyone can in theory set themselves up and practice acupuncture with no formal training an no insurance.
So if you are looking for qualified acupuncturist always look on their website and look at their profile. Firstly are they member of a professional body? That I very important on choosing your potential acupuncturist. The three main bodies in the UK are; The BAcC (British acupuncture council) the ATCM (The association of Traditional Chinese) and the BMAC (British medical acupuncture council.)
The BAcC and the ATCM govern traditional acupuncturist and have strict educational standards requirements, codes of ethics and codes of conduct and members will be fully insured. The BMAC is the body that oversees medical acupuncturist ie physiotherapists, Doctors, nurses and chiropractors.
You would also look for where they trained, length of training and how long they have practiced,
But Most importantly, is the professional membership of one the above professional bodies because otherwise you have no way of knowing if they are properly qualified or insured. Because if they are not insured you have no come back if something goes wrong.

How long is a course of acupuncture? This is a question I get asked often. In traditional acupuncture, a normal course of treatment would be about six weekly sessions. I would normally suggest we start with four treatments, then review the progress if the client is satisfied with the progress, I would suggest they ave the full six week course. So why six? Acupuncture is a process that can take time. The idea is to help re-balance the body's energetic system, this can take time. Physical symptoms are often manifestations of deeper imbalances that may have been present for sometime. So this process of re-balance is not something that happens over night. I Often hear people say, "Oh I had acupuncture, but it didn't work for me" Then you ask "how many treatments did you have?" they say, "one or two". No wonder they didn't get the full benefit. They didn't give it a chance. So when considering a course of acupuncture it is worth remembering that it is a process, its not a one treatment wonder, sometimes it takes up to four treatments to see any significant improvement. Therefore it is important to have an idea of how many treatments you can afford, and are you going to be able to commit at least six weeks to improving your health, and seeing it as in investment rather than a chore. before picking up the phone.

Sciatica is a horrible condition. With symptoms of pain that can start in the buttock and radiate down the leg. It can range from being a discomfort to an unbeatable rageing pain. It's another of those conditions that conventional medicine is not particularly effective in treating apart from with pain killers which are often not particularly effective.
Acupuncture can be very effective, especially in the early stages. It's is as well to combine it with other therapies like Chiropractic , Osteopathy and Physiotherapy. But for significant pain relief it's is well worth trying acupuncture.

Complementary therapies and the NHS - The NHS is in crisis we are told, Doctors and nurses, hospitals and surgeries can no longer cope with the pressure of demand. Yet they still don't refer patients to other allied healthcare professionals. Therapies like osteopathy, Chiropractic and acupuncture and counselling have long been recognised, established, tried and tested. There are minimum training requirements usually of at least three to four years. All the above therapies are overseen by professional associations that set strict codes of conduct, ethics and health and safety. Yet still the medical profession are totally resistant in accepting CAM, which is quite odd because certainly the main professional therapies osteopathy, Chiropractic and Traditional acupuncture can and do save the NHS millions of pounds a year. Whilst acupuncture is used in a very limited form by physiotherapists and some GPs and nurses as an adjunct to pain relief, it much wider use is still not accepted. I think things need to change, if the NHS is under such huge pressure but they cannot refer their patients on to other forms of allied healthcare, mainly because NICE don't approve, because they are controlled by the pharmaceutical companies, then there needs to be public pressure from patients associations etc. to put pressure on the NHS to more fully recognise CAM therapies as valid for many millions of people throughout the world.
