There are Many Acupuncture Approaches and Styles

Dr. Jennifer M. Williams offers advanced and authentic acupuncture to patients and advanced frameworks as an approved National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine CEU/PDA provider. Advanced acupuncture frameworks are weaved with emerging science to offer clear guidance on mechanisms of disease that often stump mainstream providers, resulting in a lack of logical treatment options.

Advanced acupuncture frameworks are weaved with emerging science to offer resulting in a lack of logical treatment options.Acupuncture medicine defines the scope of primary Licensed Acupuncturists (L.Acs), which includes related modalities (tui na massage, moxibustion, gua sha, cupping, and often herbal medicine) as taught in accredited Acupuncture Masters and Doctorate degree programs that incorporate a foundation of established frameworks designed to inform assessment, diagnosis, and application of acupuncture as a dynamic medical paradigm. Primary acupuncturists weave theoretical, diagnostic, and acupuncture frameworks into a complete practice that requires passing 3-4 national board exams after 3,000 hours of education and clinical internship. Secondary acupuncture providers utilize basic frameworks such as dry needling (trigger therapy), medical acupuncture, or ear acupuncture protocols that requires 0-300 hours of non-accredited training or oversight.
