How to find a licensed acupuncturist?<\/h2>\n

\n
• Do some research<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Acupuncture has eight principles and five elements, all balanced with ying and yang. Get to know the basics of this language so that you will know the combinations that will help you and look for a\u00a0licensed acupuncturist<\/strong> that use this combination.<\/p>\n

  \n
  • Ask Your for Referrals<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Your friends, family and colleagues and online reviews can offer great insights. Ask friends and family about their experiences and and results.<\/p>\n

    \n
    • Evaluate the Practitioner<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Meet the practitioner and have a comprehensive conversation. Does he\/she listen to your concerns and needs? Does he\/she focus on holistic treatment and not just a certain types of illnesses.<\/p>\n

      \n
      • Ask your Doctor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        A good doctor will not hesitate to recommend a licensed acupuncturist<\/strong> for as long that person is worthy of a recommendation. There are medical doctors who work with acupuncturists and may even be trained as acupuncturists themselves.<\/p>\n

        \n
        • Check out the Needles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Make sure that the licensed acupuncturist that you see stocks and use single-use disposable needles. You would not want to aggravate your current condition because of dirty or contaminated needles or, worse, get another illness.<\/p>\n

          \n
          • Be Aware of Herbal Interactions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            If the practitioner wants to prescribe herbs, make sure that you look into its potential interactions with any prescription drugs that you take. They might seem harmless but there are herbs that can cause harmful effects when taking in with certain medications.<\/p>\n

            \n
            • Determine Insurance Compatibility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Even when you are sure that your medical insurance plan will cover acupuncture, check with the carrier before going to your first appointment. There are some policies that only cover certain conditions or only when done by certain practitioners.<\/p>\n

              \n
              • Verify the Practitioner License<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                When you find an acupuncturist, make sure that he\/she is licensed in your jurisdiction. There are websites where you can take a look at a list of licensed acupuncturists<\/strong> in your area. If you go to their office, they should also have credentials visibly displayed.<\/p>\n

                \n
                • Enjoy The Benefits Of Acupuncture<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                  And once you have found the practitioner who feels right for you, sit back and enjoy the benefits of a 4,000-year-old Chinese medicine.
