It is our belief, as ethical practitioners that our professional practice must be in the best interest of our patients.
Acupuncture is a safe, effective way to complement and enhance conventional medical treatment.
The mission of the Acupuncture Foundation of Canada Institute is to ensure the integration and expansion of acupuncture within the health care delivery system through professional and public education, development of standards of practice, advocacy and research. To design and provide various educational programs in acupuncture to human-health professionals. To promote acupuncture's legitimate place in western medicine and dentistry. To promote the interests of the membership. The AFCI supports the inclusion of acupuncture as a method of treatment by health care professionals, exclusively within their professional scopes of practice, and within their level of training.
