Acupuncture should only be practiced by trained, licensed professionals. Athletic trainers have very little training. They should not be allowed to practice acupuncture as they don't have the hours that an acupuncturist does in training and education. Allowing them to practice acupuncture without proper training will endanger patients lives. Please consider the public and their safety when voting. Thank you.
