Acupuncture is an ancient treatment method, which originated in China and has a history of thousands of years. By stimulating specific acupoints in the human body, it achieves the purpose of regulating body functions and treating diseases. However, if acupuncture treatment is to be carried out, you need to have certain professional knowledge and skills. This is the topic we are going to discuss today: acupuncture needs a Chinese medicine practitioner's certificate to work.

Practice certificate of traditional Chinese medicine. This is a certificate issued by the National Health and Wellness Committee of China, which proves that the holder has the basic ability and qualification to engage in medical activities of traditional Chinese medicine. Holders of this certificate can independently engage in TCM diagnosis, treatment, prevention and health care.

All medical actions must comply with relevant laws and regulations. A doctor without a doctor's qualification certificate may not carry out medical activities. With a doctor's certificate, doctors need to receive systematic medical education and training, which is helpful to improve the quality of medical services.
