How to Start an Acupuncture Business

Prior to opening an acupuncture business there are certain things you need to know and steps you will need to follow. Acupuncture is a form of alternative healing so it requires more in depth steps to ensure that things will run smoothly and legally. If you are looking to start an acupuncture business you will need to ensure that you have the necessary education as well as the characteristics that are right for this type of profession and business. This will help you start a flourishing business and be the successful professional you long to be.

The first thing you will need to do is obtain a higher education at the bachelor, master, or doctoral degree levels. Training can last a total of eight years or as little as four years. In order to prepare for your own business you will need to study coursework like:
  •     Physiology
  •     Chinese medicine
  •     Anatomy
  •     Patterns of disease
  •     Techniques
  •     Qi Gong
  •     Ethics
  •     Management
  •     The five elements
  •     Business

Once you have trained in these areas and obtained the needed knowledge and skills you will be ready to start creating your business. Creating a business plan will require that you have all the necessary skills for running a business as well as training in acupuncture.


The second step when looking to start an acupuncture business is to create a business plan. Business plans are essential because they layout the basics of your business and how it will run. Your business plan will need to include naming your business, creating a vision, defining your mission statement, creating an action plan, and obtaining finances. Once you have created your business plan and you have an outline of how you would like your business to run you are ready to begin the journey.

Once you have created a business plan you will need to start marketing your acupuncture business. This can be done through various forms of advertising such as business cards, word of mouth, billboards, and radio. Getting the word out about your business will help you gain the clients you desire. Once you have all the necessary training and have created your business plan you can begin preparing for the future you dream of.
