The evolution of acupuncture is the culmination of 4000 years of humanitys best and brightest. You can';t tell me that anything less than 4 years of indepth study and training can reproduce the best expected outcome. The likeleyhood  and potential for this procidure to be done incorrectly is profoundly weighted against the inexperienced and unproperly trained. The proballe  outcome will be that many will experience no positive results or quite possibly negsative outcome and thereby damage the public  concept of  those that are properly trained ....................The Acupuncturists.
