I am currently living in US and planning to take BS + MS degree in acupuncture from US college(www.bastyr.edu/) . Can I practice acupuncture or open clinic in India just based on US degree? Previously I have done BTech in ECE form India.

Hello Ritu, 

Interesting question. But my question to you here is why do you wish to practice in India? You have mentioned you are settled in USA, then are you planning to settle down in India?. 

In-case if you are thinking of settling in India. I would suggest invest or learn the art of accupressure from its roots here in India. Though a degree from USA cannot change the basic learning and yes you can practice here India. 

But just after a degree, once in India, I would suggest practice under an experienced or practicing accupressure consultant and get to know its demand. And then opt for your own practice.

Hope this helps.

Wish you good luck....
