Chinese Herbal Medicine

Chinese Herbal Medicine employs the same diagnostic methods as other types of TCM and, rather than using pre-sterilised disposable Acupuncture needles to provide the treatment, it uses Traditional Chinese Medical ingredients such as roots, leaves and flowers which are combined according to classical Chinese Prescriptions to treat the patient/client’s condition.
This course is only suitable for people already trained in Acupuncture TCM and is for Acupuncturists wishing to add Chinese Herbal Medicine to their therapeutic options.
The course is run as a Post-graduate Professional Diploma in Chinese Herbal Medicine – Dip.CHM (Modular, 2 year Programme).
Students meet approximately once every 2 months for a four day module – including theoretical and practical skills development in the selection, prescription and dispensing of chinese herbal prescriptions.
