Yes, in India, Acupuncture courses are generally considered a part of the broader category of alternative medicine practices, which falls under the AYUSH (Ayurveda, Naturopathy & Yoga, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy) system.
While Acupuncture is rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is distinct from the traditional AYUSH systems, it is often included within the scope of alternative therapies promoted by AYUSH.
