(b)The title "Auricular Detoxification Technician" (A.D.T.) may only be used by persons licensed to practice auricular (ear) detoxification therapy under this article. Possession of a license to practice as an A.D.T. does not by itself entitle a person to identify himself or herself as an acupuncturist. An auricular (ear) detoxification technician is strictly limited to five ear points' treatment for detoxification for substance abuse, chemical dependency, or both.
(c)No person licensed under this article may advertise or hold himself or herself out to the public as being authorized to practice medicine under Article 2 of this chapter.
