A preliminary attempt to analyse and interpret the doctor-patient relationship in acupuncture is presented. The study was based on questionnaires completed by doctors and patients and patients' pictures of the acupuncture session.

What emerges is that the doctor must be aware of his role and personal dynamics as well as of the symbolic connotations of the needle if the is to obtain optimum therapeutic results.
