Can I get acupuncture on the NHS?

Yes, acupuncture is slowly becoming more widely available on the NHS but services are usually restricted to specific users or specific locations. Some GP surgeries and physiotherapists offer acupuncture treatments free of charge although it is common practice to charge a fee for them. Ask your doctor for more details to see if you are entitled to acupuncture treatment on the NHS.
