Acupuncture
Duties
and Responsibilities:
Acupuncture is a traditional
Chinese medical art practiced for more than 5,000 years. It involves inserting
fine needles at points on the body's surface to influence physiological
functions. Acupuncture practitioners treat a wide range of physical and
psychological conditions and provide support for patients with chronic
diseases.
Salary:
Around $41,361
a year.
Education:
Most
licensed acupuncturists hold master's degrees or post-baccalaureate
certificates from schools accredited by the Accreditation Commission for
Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Most programs require 1,500-2,000
hours of acupuncture training and take 3-4 years to complete. Graduates must
pass the certification exam offered by NCCAOM and fulfill any additional state
licensing requirements.
I would not want to be an acupuncturist since this a really
old healing method and as time goes they make newer and easier methods. So
slowly they would lose their earning. I also wouldn’t want to be one because I don’t
feel I would be responsible enough to be poking people with needles, I would
not want to mess up. That is why I would not like to be an acupuncturist.
