We know that the history of
acupuncture dates back at least
35 centuries, because prehistoric
artists recorded acupuncture
treatments by depicting them
through etchings on bones. Much
later, about 25 centuries ago, the
first medical book was written in
China which included many
details of the praCtice of
acupuncture, which was already
ancient at that time,
Acupuncture in Canada is not a
recent discovery, It has always
been practised in Chinese
communities. However, in the
last few years, Western
physicians have been looking at
the possible benefits of this type
of treatment, and many have
visited China for actual
demonstrations of acupuncture.
Because this type of treatment
is relatively new in Ontario, there
was no legislation covering the
practice of acupuncturists
operating in this Province. As a
result some"quackupuncturists"
set up shop and took advantage of
unsuspecting patients who were
not relieved of their problems
and were still charged high fees
for service.
Up to now anyone could open an
office and insert needles into
people regardless of whether he
or she had any training in
acupuncture. This was a
potentially dangerous situation
for several reasons. First of all,
not all acupuncturists were
following basic rules of hygiene.
The Toronto Globe and Mail
published a story about a
Hamilton acupuncturists who
was inserting needles through
nylon stockings. If conditions are
not completely sterile, there is a
very real danger of infection,
Another danger of acupuncture
at the hands of someone who has
not received the proper training
is that the. needle could ac-
cidently puncture a vital organ,
Another concern is the
possibility that acupuncture
might be used before expert
medical diagnosis has been ob-
tained. Without such diagnosis
proper medical care could be
delayed and serious con-
sequences to the individual could
result.
Last June the Government took
the first step toward controlling
the practice of acupuncture in
Ontario. Health Minister Frank
Miller stated Ryas a medical act
and could only be performed by a
non-medical person on referral in
writing by a physician, thus
ensuring that a diagnosis has
been established. At that time he
announced three research grants
totalling $75,000 to assist in
establishing the role of
acupuncture in the delivery of
health care.
Unfortunately, the Minister's
directive in June did not do very
much to prevent the continuing
operation of the storefront
acupuncturists he wanted to
control. Many of these people
continued to see patients without
the written referral of a
physician. It became very rob-
vious that more stringent con-
trols were needed.
In July, Ontario acupuncurists
formed an Association with
Hubert Lam as president. The
Association stated that it felt
acupuncturists should all be
licensed and disciplined by a
separate Board. This
precipitated a struggle between
the medical and non-medical
acupuncturists because Ontario
doctors wanted to limit the
practice of acupuncture to
licenced physicians. The
Acupuncture Foundation which
was composed of medical doc-
tors, urged physicians not to
refer their patients to lay
acupuncturists.
At last on January 8 the Health
Minister came out with his long
awaited statement on the status
of acupuncture in this Province.
He said that the practice of
acupuncture will be restricted to
physicians, dentists and specially
trained lay acupuncturists who
have passed an examination and
are working under the super-
vision of a physician. This will
put most of Ontario's acupunc-
ture clinics, estimated to number
about 100, out of business, as Mr.
Miller estimated only about 12 to
15 non-medical acupuncturists
will be able to pass the
examination.
Lay acupuncturists will be
required to submit to a training
course and special examination
to be administered by the College
of Physicans and Surgeons.
Although it is regarded as a
medical act, acupuncture will not
be covered by OHIP. However, a
scale of approved rates will be
drawn up by the Ontario Medical
Association, At the present time
people are paying anywhere from
$10 to $35 per treatment.
Hopefully the new Government
regulations will eliminate
Ontario's unwanted
quackuplincturistsIby controlling
who may or—may not practice this
ancient Chinese technique.

UCW
The January meeting of the
UCW was held Thursday evening
in the Sunday School auditorium
of Zion United Church.
Mrs. Lorne Preszcator, Mrs,
Russell Finkbeiner, Mrs: Gordon
Finkbeiner and Mrs. Earl Neil
led the program, the theme of
which was "The Art of Living."
The table was decorated with
lighted candles and a plate
bearing the words "God Bless
Our Home," Mrs. Gordon Fink-
beiner accompanied the singing
of hymns. Mrs. Preszcator and
Mrs. Finkbeiner sang, ac-
companied by Mrs. Russell Fink-
beiner.
The subtle influence upon the
occupants of everyone and
everything in the home, even the
furnishings, was discussed,
Mrs. Preszcator read an ac-
count of the JEM Farm (Japan
Evangelical Misson) in Alberta,
a farm that turns its profit into
missionary enterprise. One of the
farm operators, Eldon Dick, is a
relative of Joe Woodall and
William Sweet.
Mrs. Preszcator closed the
program by reading a poem,"The
Junkman". As we threw out old
clothes at his call, so let us
discard old woes at the call of the
New Year.
The president, Mrs. Cliff
Russell, opened the business
session with prayer and a look,
toward 1975, Roll' Call was an-
swered by the payment of dues.
Officers and conveners gave
their reports for 1974.
Hostesses were Mrs, Donna
Bushfield, Mrs. Gordon Ratz,
Mrs. Cliff Russell.

Mrs. Jim Pfaff and their family,
made the trip by plane,

Grierson of London.
Mrs, Albert Bickell celebrated
her 93 birthday January 10. All
her family were home for the
occasion,
Mr. & Mrs. Larry Bickell are
holidaying in Florida.
The Senior Citizens enjoyed
their first Senior Citizens Euchre
at the Kirkton and Woodham
Community Centre, Tuesday
afternoon,
Why do some men look for
home atmosphere in a hotel and
hotel service in a home?
Some qUestion has arisen as to
why acupuncture will not be
covered by .otfuo since the
College of Physicians and,
Surgeons has accepted it as a
medical modality, I think the
answer to this is that not all
medical procedures are fully
covered by OHIP.
For example chiropractic
treatments are only covered up to.
a maximum of $100 a year, and
psychotherapy done by
psychologists is not covered at
all. The Minister of Health has
stated that it is not inconceivable
that some day acupuncture will
be covered by OHIP. However,
the task at hand is to determine
the real medical benefits of this
type of treatment which although
ancient is not completely un-.
derstood.
