Strong preference given to those practitioners with an existing strong knowledge in at least one of the following areas or those interested in becoming specialists in one or more of these areas:
● Acupuncture with a biomedical approach such as neuropuncture, orthopedic acupuncture, dry needling etc. (We are interested in someone drawn to this style of acupuncture because physicians and patients are seeking out physical therapists to perform these types of acupuncture. We are strongly opposed to PT’s practicing acupuncture with any less training than an L.Ac. We do not believe that this style of acupuncture is superior to more traditional or classical styles of acupuncture but we want to diversify our offerings. Who better than an acupuncturist with these leanings to educate and MD or patient.)
● Cosmetic Acupuncture
● Dermatology
● Pediatrics
● Infertility and Women’s Health
