Can acupuncture really be studied safely at distance?

bbsadmin

Hi there,

I have recently been researching acupuncture schools and courses as i am very eager to learn and practise this skill. I have long term experience of chinese internal arts such as qigong and tai chi. However the problem is that here in the UK every course takes about three years and that is too long. As with anything if it has a good side it also has a bad side this is yin/yang. Therefore acupuncture if practised incorrectly must also i imagine be very dangerous. What i am interested to know is whether or not one can really learn it effectively and safely at distance without a teachers supervision to guide you and make sure you do it right?

Many thanks,
