# Can a licensed acupuncturist rent this room, and is sharps disposal handled?

Yes. What gets verified is a current New York State acupuncture license from the Office of the Professions. NCCAOM certification is welcome but is not sufficient on its own, because New York licenses at state level. Sharps disposal is handled in the room: a rigid sharps container is mounted there and serviced by a licensed medical waste contractor, so you do not arrange it yourself.

## Constraints worth stating
- Direct moxa and smoky indirect moxa are prohibited — there is no dedicated exhaust. Smokeless stick moxa and TDP lamps are fine, as are cupping, gua sha and electroacupuncture with your own units.
- The bed does not offer drop-through prone foot clearance. If your protocol needs it, see the room first.
- The suite shares a floor with Pilates equipment; the page describes the ambient noise honestly and suggests early or late blocks for long retention work.
- Reiki and other practitioners who are not state-licensed are asked to get in touch before booking rather than being refused outright.
