Acupuncturists

Experience, Skills, and Personality Traits

Like other healthcare practitioners, acupuncturists frequently work with people who are in pain and have been ill for a long time. Patients often come to acupuncturists after other medical treatments have failed. They may be especially pessimistic about finding relief or cures. Acupuncturists need to be good listeners, patient, and compassionate. Acupuncturists also need to have sensitive hands.
