Going on a weekend course is quite adequate to start using basic
acupuncture. Don't forget we spent a year or more at med school
learning where we shouldn't stick needles if we wanted not to cause
harm. A weekend is plenty. How long did we spend learning to inject a
knee? I reckon I could cause more damage and pain doing that than using
my acupuncture needles.
