Dr. Carson with  T.O.A. course graduates in Taiwan (2004). The year 2011 scheduled new training courses (Including two special Europe introductory Tung's courses can be found in the scheduled Events at the front of the training course section. This programme has been specifically designed to address the needs of practicing acupuncturists who want to enhance their practical skills through working closely and informally with their peers under the guidance of the very experienced Tung’s acupuncture practitioner. Tung’s Orthodox Acupuncture is an ancient and unique system in the arena of Traditional Oriental Acupuncture. In recent years Tung’s Orthodox Acupuncture Clinics which have been established in Asia, Europe as well as in North America and have earned enormous respect from patients and other schools of traditional acupuncturists. Because Tung’s own points are based on Topographical concepts, therefore, this Diploma course will be divided into three parts as our previous courses. This Part 1 begins in Feb. and the Part 2 starts in Mar., the Part 3 starting in May. At the end of the Course those who pass an examination held by the World Tung’s Acupuncture Association@, will receive an official Diploma. In order to participate the Tung’s Acupuncture seminars or to join the W.T.A.A. (the only International organization) as a member it is essential to have the diploma.

The Course generally includes Lectures and Workshops(Needling & Eastern Exercise). The technique of needling is much less involved, as Tung’s points are so effective when compared to other Traditional Chinese Acupuncture. Course participants will soon find out that learning Tung’s Acupuncture can really achieve their goals and to build up confidence in their acupuncture professional practice.
