| Acupuncture Visits Almost Triple |
| There's no doubt that healthcare expenditures are foremost in the minds of most Americans. We want better quality care at a lower cost. For many, this may mean turning to alternative and complementary medicine. Now, a new government report shows that Americans have nearly tripled their visits to acupuncturists over the course of the past 10 years.
 According to a recently released federal report, there was a very substantial increase in visits to acupuncturists between 1997 and 2007. The report by the National Center for Health Statistics showed data on the median number of visits to a practitioner in the last 12 months. There were 79 acupuncturist visits per 1,000 adults in 2007. By comparison, there were only 27 visits per 1,000 adults in 1997 - an almost three-fold increase.
Clearly acupuncture is having an impact on Americans' healthcare choices. More and more people are finding the benefits that AOM can provide for them. |
