Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 Does anyone know of a current resource of acupuncture and chinese herboloby laws in the United states? I'm looking for something similar to what's listed on Acupuncture.com, only more current and with specifics on herbal medicine for each state. I've found numerous links to the actual laws for each state, but that is information overload. It seems most sites reference the 2001 publication of " Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine Laws " - which would be useable if there was a legislative addendum containing changes since its publication. At this point I am using a combination of Acupuncture.com and info found at http://www.aomalliance.org/publications/newsletter/articles/leg% 20upd.htm Does anyone know of any other user friendly resources? This seems like the kind of thing that our national organizations should be on top of. I wonder what recent graduates do when faced with relocating? Lastly, while researching legislation I came across this juicy requirement in Maryland: an acupuncturist must wear a tag designating him or herself as a " Registered Acupuncturist " while doing treatment. I suppose a name tag is cheaper than a degree... -Tim Sharpe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 The problem with hyperlinks to acupuncture regulations is they are notorious for changing and so they have to be updated quite frequently. I believe that the links at the following pages are more up-to-date than acupuncture.com's. Just click on the state in question and look to the right side of the page toward the top. If I found a link to a practice act, I included it there... http://gancao.net/Referrals/ref.shtml#4 -al.
