Prospective patients should ask about where the practitioner trained and for how long he or she has been in practice, and, mostly importantly, what experience the practitioner has had in treating your specific ailment.  Acupuncture is a licensed and regulated health care profession in over 40 states in the U.S.  In addition, the National Commission for the Certification of Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) certifies both acupunc-turists and Chinese herbal practitioners.  Acupuncturists who have passed the NCCAOM exam are entitled to add Dipl. Ac. (Diplomate of Acupuncture) after their name.
