ADVANCING CHINESE MEDICINE

The Classical Acupuncture Mentorship offers a curriculum designed by Sean Tuten, DOM that honors the classics of Chinese Medicine while prioritizing clinical diagnosis, practice, and specialized treatment techniques.  The full curriculum is over 84 hours of continuing education that covers the Primary and Complement Channels of Acupuncture and can be taught in whole or in part.  

In addition, we seek to enlist master practitioners as guest lecturers to present material in their specialty and to offer training in advanced clinical skills.
