The Course

The Chinese Medicine course begins with a six-month exploration of Chinese medical theory, covering the foundational principles that have guided this practice for centuries. You'll learn about the balance of energy, the nature of health and illness, and practical ways to apply these insights in everyday life. Building on this, the six-week Organs and Meridians segment provides an in-depth study of the body's organ systems and energy channels, helping you understand how energy flows and influences health.

The program also includes a daily tutorial on Chinese Medicine points, offering a year-long deep dive into the specific locations and functions of these powerful tools for healing. To support this knowledge, the six-month Anatomy module bridges Eastern and Western perspectives by covering the fundamentals of Western Anatomy. This comprehensive approach ensures students gain both a practical and theoretical understanding of the human body.
