The most interesting acupuncture news this month comes out of Austin Texas, where a blind woman is petitioning the state for the second time, to allow her to practice acupuncture. While there are no laws prohibiting this practice, the board of examiners is concerned about safety issues. I'm definitely pro-blindacupuncture - she could treat me anytime! If she has the smarts to get a master's degree and the gumption to lobby for her rights, she can probably give a good acupuncture treatment.
