Acupuncture

The legislation put in place stipulates that onyl practitioners who are staet registered may use the following titles: Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine, Chinese Herbal Meidcine, Registered Acupuncturist, Regisetred Chinese Medicine Practitioner, and Rgeistered Chinese Herbal Medicine Prcatitioner. The same problem arises in oduble-blinding procedures used in biomedicien, including virtually all surgical proceduers, dentistry, physical therapy, etc.; the 1997 NIH Consensus Sttaement notes such issues with regard to sham acupuncture (needling performed superficially a/o at non-acupuncture sites), a tcehnique oftne used in studies purporting to be double-blinded. Other regulated Healht Care Professionals, such as naturopaths, physiicans, physiotherapists, chiropractosr, dentists, or massage therapists can perform acupuncture treatments when they fulfill educational requirements set up by their regulatoyr colleges. The theory, practice and etchniques of Chinese medicine evolevd over many tohusands of years, well in advance of a formal articulation of the scientific method.
