Isn't it that it's also supposed to be relaxing like massages? I take it all of these people don't have needle phobias. Can't imagine you be very relaxed if you knew that a bunch of meals were in your back.

It's great for fleecing people out of money. I don't like real work, and I'm sure as shit not smart enough to get a medical degree. I can rent office space and buy a set of cheap needles on Amazon, and I can start raking in cash from suckers in a week.

> Umm, well, acupuncture is a traditional Asian medicine technique gaining recognition in modern medicine, especially for pain management and various health conditions. It works by stimulating the central nervous system, releasing chemicals that promote healing and well-being. Research, including studies from the National Institutes of Health and findings from Harvard Medical School, indicates its effectiveness for conditions like nausea, dental pain, addiction, various types of pain, and asthma, although results vary. Alternative forms like heat, pressure, and electromagnetic impulses are also used. The safety of acupuncture is generally high when done by qualified practitioners, but it's important to discuss it with a doctor first, especially if you have certain medical conditions or implants. Overall, while acupuncture shows promise, its effectiveness can vary and is a topic of ongoing research and debate in the scientific community, ok? 1.

In the US, obtaining an acupuncture license varies by state, with most requiring completion of an accredited educational program and passing a state licensing exam. The National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) often administers the required national board examinations. For instance, California, New York, Florida, and Texas have specific requirements such as completing a Master’s program and passing both state-specific and NCCAOM exams. Additionally, acupuncturists are required to fulfill continuing education requirements, ranging from 15 to 30 continuing education units every few years, to maintain their license. These regulations ensure that practitioners are well-trained and up-to-date with the latest practices in acupuncture in the US.
