Membership in FSOMA is supporting your profession and its future. Our work advocating for Acupuncture & Eastern medicine supports your practice and the health of Floridians. Additionally FSOMA can offer group savings on things like AOM supplies, malpractice insurance, disability plans, office supplies and more. Join today for your future growth.
By protecting the legal status to practice acupuncture in Florida, FSOMA aims to enhance the quality of health care for people in our state. The FSOMA membership fees support our dynamic lobbyist team that has already thwarted an attempt to take away titles and impose limitation on practice. Understanding the legislative process and taking action is one way our Association serves Florida acupuncturists and strengthens the practice of acupuncture as a medicine.
We believe that cooperation and strength among practitioners and supporters will ensure that this ancient and modern medical profession will retain its integrity. Anyone can advocate for safe and effective acupuncture. As licensed acupuncturists, we advocate our practices. As leaders in the field, we step up, learn, and contribute to the local, state, and national efforts to maintain standards while improving the profession.
FSOMA acknowledges and respects all traditions of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine. Our medicine is ancient, yet constantly adapting to the modern world. FSOMA works to ensure fair compensation for your professional services within the modern healthcare system and to offer training and support for those wishing to find employment within it.
