What is the difference between ACCHS and other TCM schools?
There are many differences between ACCHS and other schools. We are the Academy of “Chinese Culture.” No other institution boasts cultural overtones. ACCHS is the second oldest school in the country, founded on principles which originate from China, that culture is strongly emphasized in the TCM curriculum. First and foremost, we are focused on cultivating your ability to graduate from the Masters program, which is the entry level for licensure. Moreover, you will not learn acupuncture modalities that stray from the authenticity of TCM. You will never hear us refer to this medical field as “Oriental Medicine” or “OM.” We focus on TCM modalities, yin and yang, the five elements, and cultural aspects that relate to the history of China – TCM. If you seek to integrate Japanese, Korean, and/or other Asian acupuncture modalities, you will not find them at an academy of Chinese culture.
