There are still available spaces for our CPD-accredited Foundation Course in Medical Acupuncture, scheduled for October 3rd 2025.
The Medical Acupuncture Foundation Course has been carefully developed to address the specific needs of healthcare professionals interested in utilising acupuncture as a therapeutic approach for musculoskeletal and related disorders. The course comprises both online and practical workshops, enabling students to progress at a pace that suits their individual needs. The curriculum encourages the application of Western medical diagnosis, while integrating principles from traditional Chinese medicine with Western medical acupuncture to provide participants with comprehensive insight into the evolution and practice of acupuncture. Participants will be introduced to methods that blend myofascial trigger point therapy with classical acupuncture points, facilitating their application in routine clinical practice to enhance patient outcomes.
The course emphasises evidence-based research to support its instructional framework. Significant focus is placed on health and safety, appropriate needling techniques, contraindications, and the critical selection of both classical acupuncture and myofascial trigger points in managing common musculoskeletal conditions. This structured approach enables participants to develop proficiency and confidence in the application of acupuncture. Critical evaluation and reflective practice are actively encouraged, supporting the ongoing assessment and potential advancement of the current evidence base.
Furthermore, the program delivers thorough knowledge and understanding regarding the physiological mechanisms by which acupuncture influences pain management and supports the healing process.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course, and the mix of online resources and practicals was great. The support was also really good, and I liked that it was a smaller group, as I felt I gained a great deal more from it. I will definitely book onto other courses in the future, but I loved this one.
