About the course:
It takes several skills to give an acupuncture practice the best chance of succeeding. The number of treatments and frequency required to achieve maximum benefit for your patients is an essential skill and key to a successful clinical practice. There is a fine balance to this skill, if you stretch the acupuncture treatments out too far and you can lose momentum where as too frequent demands a large time and money commitment from the patient, which could be a barrier to proceeding with treatment.
A good, rough rule of thumb is that problems the patient has had for years (or that were years in the making) will take months to treat. Problem the patient has had for months will take weeks to treat. Problems the patient has had for weeks can take days to treat and problems the patient just developed in the last few days may respond to just one or two treatments
