Accreditation is not needed once you know all the techniques of acupuncture, but it will provide more patients since your accreditation stands and supports your quality service, and people definitely want quality service and give their trust only to certified and accredited experts. Proper training is very important if you are planning a future office in your private practice, since the world is filled with fake experts and practitioners and people are always looking for certified ones.
You have to visit the schools and ask how long the program lasts, you have to inquire about the classes and the costs. Hands-on training is what most people want since the techniques are best learned in this way. Traveling is maybe what you will have to do a lot so that you get proper training since there are so few schools in the America, but you can find a way to share traveling and training expenses with available scholarships. Master programs are also an option at some schools. As you can see, you can become an acupuncture practitioner easily, but accreditation is a key to the success. Acupressure may present a great professional opportunity since it is becoming more popular every year.
