An Acupuncturist is a medicinal professional trained in a form of traditional Chinese medicine called
acupuncture. They work with a mission to relieve pain and promote healing in the patients. They also
help in improving physical mental and emotional health. The relief is offered to the patients by
stimulating specific points on the patient’s body.
