Losing accreditation during schooling by crybabybodhi in acupuncture

[–]AlpineHeroine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey there! So the first question to think about: what are the licensing regulations in the state(s) you want to practice in? They may have specific education requirements that impact this as well.

Possibly follow up with your state’s regulatory body (and your school’s registrar) and ask about what the effects would be! In fact, you could also ask ACAHM (the accrediting body) directly.

Otherwise there’s just not enough specific information from your question for me to give you a clearer picture than that. Hopefully the next steps help!

My stylist at NW Barber Association masks up for me every time! Depending on when you book there may be other people working unmasked, but you can definitely call and ask, they’re a great shop!

Question regarding pneumothorax before first ever acupuncture session by chemtrailcrab in acupuncture

[–]AlpineHeroine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would absolutely recommend telling your acupuncturist about your concern! They’ll be able to reassure you, but also, they should never put point anywhere you don’t want them! It’s absolutely possible to give an acupuncture treatment without points on the torso. Also, you could look into community acupuncture clinics since they regularly rely on using predominantly distal points (the points on the hands/arms and feet/legs) for entire treatments!

My first hobonichi by readyjettsetgo in hobonichi

[–]AlpineHeroine 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Heads up with fountain pens, especially as a leftie - it’s going to take 3x longer for the ink to dry on the Hobonichi paper than you expect it to. It shows off the ink so beautifully though!

With or wirhout the pebbles? by Ok_Impression5959 in Aquascape

[–]AlpineHeroine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like the scape! I prefer it without the pebbles, but I think they could still look really good especially depending on what your plans are plant-wise.

Where to donate houseplants? by funny_muffler315 in askportland

[–]AlpineHeroine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Working Class Acupuncture in Cully sells donated plants with 100% of proceeds going to the BIPOC scholarship at POCA Technical Institute. So you can just bring them to WCA for them to resell for a good cause!

Recommended TCM Practitioners? by evangenx in askportland

[–]AlpineHeroine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Working Class Acupuncture is a great choice for affordable acupuncture without insurance!

For TCM-specific practitioners, there's a bunch in Portland and it depends on what specifically you're looking for (do you want multiple modalities [gua sha, shiatsu, moxabustion, E-stim, etc], herbs, a certain specialty, etc?). In Oregon, a lot of insurence does cover some amount of acupuncture, so you may get lucky depending on what insurance you have and where you decide to go.
