Our Beginning
We formed in 2002 to give acupuncturists in Ohio a voice. We have helped grow our profession in Ohio through new legislation to license Oriental Medicine practitioners, through work to get more insurances providers including medicaid to cover acupuncture, and through public awareness campaigns.
Our Mission
We are committed to raising awareness of acupuncture and Oriental medicine as a viable and safe treatment option and as a complement to traditional medicine.
