The Current Situation of the Dissemination and Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine Acupuncture in Indiana,USA:An Interview with Professor Jennifer Stone from School of Medicine,Indiana University
摘要
Abstract
Through in-depth interviews with a senior practitioner Jennifer Stone in Indiana,USA,combined with analysis of regional policies and clinical practice data,the paper examines the dissemination status and barriers to Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)acupuncture in the Midwestern USA.Key findings reveal that acupuncture development in the area significantly lags behind coastal regions due to geographic isolation,regulatory constraints,weak public cultural acceptance,and structural barriers within the healthcare system.However,positive patient outcomes and incremental educational reforms indicate substantial growth potential.The study fills an empirical gap in cross-cultural TCM transmission within the Midwestern USA and offers actionable strategies for overcoming systemic integration challenges.It provides transferable insights for global traditional medicine dissemination models.关键词
