Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An acupuncture provider who is not licensed is violating the ethical principle of nonmaleficence, which means "do no harm." By practicing acupuncture without a license, the provider is putting patients at risk of harm because they may not have the necessary training and experience to perform the procedure safely.
