"Chiropractic acupuncture" means the insertion of acupuncture needles through the skin at specific points. It is a chiropractic methodology used for the correction of the soft tissue components contributing to subluxation and the accompanying physiological or mechanical abnormalities. Except as provided in 32 MRSA §502, chiropractic acupuncture may only be practiced by a licensee who has received a chiropractic acupuncture certification from the Board.
