### Acupuncture Treatment Consent Form Template

If you're an acupuncturist, traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, or wellness clinic offering acupuncture services, obtaining proper informed consent is essential for both patient safety and legal protection. Our **Acupuncture Treatment Consent Form** template helps you clearly communicate treatment details, potential risks, and patient responsibilities before beginning needle therapy.

#### Why Use This Acupuncture Consent Form?

Acupuncture is a regulated healthcare service that requires patients to understand and acknowledge the nature of treatment, potential side effects, and alternative options. This template streamlines your intake process by:

 - **Documenting informed consent** for needle insertion, cupping, moxibustion, and related traditional medicine modalities
 - **Clearly explaining risks and benefits** so patients can make educated decisions about their care
 - **Meeting professional liability requirements** and regulatory standards for acupuncture practice
 - **Creating a permanent record** of patient understanding and authorization

#### What's Included in This Template

This professionally designed form covers all the essential elements of acupuncture treatment consent:

 - **Patient information and medical history** to identify contraindications and risk factors
 - **Current conditions and medications** that may affect treatment safety or efficacy
 - **Previous acupuncture experience** to tailor your approach to comfort levels
 - **Treatment expectations and frequency** to align on realistic outcomes
 - **Detailed risk disclosures** including bruising, soreness, fatigue, and rare complications
 - **Traditional medicine philosophy acknowledgment** clarifying the holistic approach
 - **Alternative treatment options** to ensure patients know their choices
 - **Cancellation and appointment policies** to protect your schedule
 - **Digital signature capture** for legally binding consent

#### Perfect for Acupuncture Practices and Wellness Centers

This template is ideal for:

 - Licensed acupuncturists (L.Ac.) in private practice
 - Integrative medicine clinics combining acupuncture with other therapies
 - Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioners
 - Wellness centers and holistic health practices
 - Chiropractic offices offering acupuncture as an adjunct service
 - Physical therapy clinics incorporating dry needling or acupuncture

#### Customizable and Brand-Aligned

Built on Paperform's intuitive platform, you can easily customize this template to match your practice's specific protocols and branding. Adjust the risk disclosures based on your scope of practice, add your clinic's policies, modify the visual design to reflect your wellness aesthetic, and embed the form directly on your website for seamless patient onboarding.

#### Streamline Your Intake with Automation

Once a patient submits their consent form, you can use **Stepper** (stepper.io) to automatically:

 - Send a welcome email with pre-treatment instructions
 - Add the patient to your practice management system or CRM
 - Schedule follow-up appointment reminders
 - Route urgent medical concerns to your attention
 - Store completed forms securely in your document management system

This means less administrative work and more time focusing on patient care.

#### Professional, Compliant, and Patient-Friendly

With Paperform's clean, document-style interface, your consent form looks professional rather than intimidating. Patients can read through each section at their own pace, ask questions if they're filling it out in your office, or complete it from home before their first appointment. The form works beautifully on any device and can be embedded directly into your booking workflow.

Paperform is **SOC 2 Type II compliant** and offers robust security features to protect sensitive health information, though please note that Paperform is not a HIPAA-compliant solution.
