Which Insurers Cover Acupuncture
I’m a fully accredited member of the British Acupuncture Council (MBAcC), which means that your health insurer probably recognises my qualifications and will pay for you to have treatment with me. It also means you are assured of the very best standards of care when you come to me.
Policy terms vary but for many it’s important to ensure you are covered for acupuncture before you commence treatment.
