Providers identified as "Licensed Acupuncturists" practice under training and licensure in a whole-person system of healthcare developed from traditional and modern Chinese and East Asian Medical principles and treatments. "Whole-person" means treatments consider physical, emotional and behavioral health as well as relationships, lifestyle and other social determinants of health.

The practice of acupuncture involves many therapies and modalities beyond the insertion and stimulation of sterile needles, that vary somewhat by training and licensure. This often includes physical medicine therapies and diagnostics, emotional and behavioral counseling, diet and lifestyle counseling, and herbal medicine.
