Exceptions to Licensure Requirements

(a)No person shall practice acupuncture and oriental medicine on Guam, either gratuitously or for pay or shall offer to practice, or shall hold themselves out to the public, advertise, declare, represent or in any way proclaim to practice acupuncture and oriental medicine, or use any titles, words, letters, signs, devices, techniques, maneuvers or modalities that could represent to the public that such person is authorized to engage in the practice of acupuncture and oriental medicine, either publicly or privately, without having a valid and current license on Guam issued by the Guam Board of Allied Health Examiners.

(b)This Article shall not be construed to prevent or restrict a doctor’s or master’s degree of acupuncture and oriental medicine holding a current license elsewhere, to engage in the practice of acupuncture and oriental medicine for the purpose of a specific short-term class, demonstration, seminar, or workshop on Guam which does not involve direct patient or client care. Teleconferencing outside of Guam is an acceptable mode of instruction.
