ASNY Members are asking questions in BaseCamp that we believe should be brought to a broader audience. Most Reopening answers can be found from the state at New York Forward. Acupuncture has been deemed an Essential Healthcare Service and you may currently open with restrictions, meaning you must follow all applicable guidelines. While there does still seem to be some discrepancy with regards to "prescribed by medical professional" on the Governor's page, that has been removed as of May 26, 2020 on the New York Forward Business Reopening Lookup Tool's page. We use, as an example, Manhattan.
We also encourage you to print this information out to display in your office and carry it with you if you are out after any established curfew in your area.
