Insurance for Acupuncturists
Insurance Protection for California Acupuncturists
You are an acupuncturist who uses natural, holistic, and scientific methods to help patients achieve balance, healing and pain relief. Whether you run a private practice, work within an established wellness center or practice acupuncture on the go in mobile format your profession requires direct-to-patient contact and skills that can potentially harm.
One claim, loss of equipment or injury can mean serious financial and professional consequences for a business owner even if steps are taken to train staff properly and take care. This is why it is critical that you have a complete Acupuncturist Insurance program and risk management plan in California to safeguard your practice, future, and reputation.
Common risks for acupuncturists include:
A patient suffers bruising, infection, or nerve injury after treatment
A client slips or falls inside your clinic
