Safety questions worth asking ān quán · 值得问的安全问题

Before any treatment: Are needles single-use and disposed of properly? What is the practitioner's qualification and registration? What are the risks of this specific treatment for my specific situation? What medicines and supplements should I mention?

And the one that matters most: what would make you tell me to go see a doctor instead? A practitioner who has a clear answer to that is a practitioner worth keeping.

任何治疗之前:针具是否一次性使用并规范处置?执业者的资质与注册情况如何?对"我这种具体情况",这个治疗的风险是什么?我应当主动告知哪些药物与保健品?

以及最关键的一个:在什么情况下你会让我去看医生?能清楚回答这个问题的执业者,是值得长期合作的执业者。
