Acupuncture

Duties and Responsibilities: Acupuncturist must treat an entire individual rather than an illness or disease. They plan an individual’s therapy based on their health. This is an alternative form of medicine.

Salary: $75,000

Education: Acupuncturist must have a master’s degree which could take 3 to 4 years to receive.

Reflections: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

I can’t stand the sight of needles and if I’m around them for too long I get dizzy so I don’t think this is a job I would enjoy this career. If I were an acupuncturist I would probably faint in the middle of therapy.
