i am accupuncture accredited. i disagree with the removal proposition, accupuncture knowledge and skill should be demonstrated and tested before being allowed to be practiced just like every other facet of medicine, otherwise it will be practiced poorly and progress back to quackery by medical doctors just taking a couple weekend course and pretend to be doing accupuncture.....i dont take a weekend course for delivering babies and advertise myself to be a midwife or obstetrician...... regards dr peter Leung
