Clinical Training
 Our
clinical training program at DRCOM
provides excellence in diagnostic techniques with emphasis on
Contemporary Chinese Pulse by supervisors with Masters level training in this
skill. Classic acupuncture, moxibustion, and individualized herbal formula
treatments are enhanced by modern techniques, such as ear and scalp acupuncture.
Students
start clinic observation in the first semester, and their involvement in
treatment is a steady progression as they increase their skill and
understanding. Close supervision in the initial phases is succeeded by the
student assuming more responsibility for the treatment, with the supervisor
being available for guidance and assistance as needed.
Our
goal is to train students as primary care providers. Our students graduate with
skills to treat disease as acute as the common cold or as chronic as the
sequelae of stroke. We offer students a well-organized clinic with a nurturing
atmosphere, where they can develop at their own pace into highly qualified
professionals.
