Environment and Culture of the workplace
Most Acupuncturists operate in private practice, however there are increasing numbers working from community health centres and hospitals. The environment is typical of a professional medical practitioner. Your rooms should offer calmness and tranquillity to the client. It shouldn’t be too clinical but it should be very clean. Being self employed you can work various hours and days of the week to suit your lifestyle and to accommodate clients. Early evening work until 7.30pm is common.
