This video is for potential acupuncture patients, and aims to give an idea of what to expect from treatment. These are some of the very basics - I hope you find it useful.

@kit2ng219 Not personally, although it is sometimes used in this way, especially in China I believe.

@udkumar11 Thanks! I don't intend to do any online teaching for the foreseeable future though - I'd suggest looking for a good local acupuncture college, as you really need to learn 'hands-on', at least initially. Let me know if you have any specific questions though.

@blabby102 Thanks for your comment. Can I ask why you think acupuncture is quackery? Presumably you're aware of the growing body of scientific evidence that is uncovering the various very real effects and benefits of acupuncture? And am I to take it that in such modern times, you'd rather acupuncture was 'not tolerated', i.e. people should be prevented from making their own informed decisions about their healthcare? I look forward to your elaboration.
