Acupuncture Market Overview

Acupuncture is an age-old healing practice of traditional Chinese medicine in which thin needles are placed at specific points in the body.

In addition, a lack of proper, institutionalized training can lead to rampant quackery and disbelief among people regarding the technique itself may hamper the growth of the market. Besides this, as specialists in the field get importance and more people are motivated to take up the skill set. This fact creates larger growth opportunities for the market in the forecast period.
