The Shiatsu School of
Canada and SSC Acupuncture Institute launch their Chinese Medicinal
Herbs Program
The use of Chinese medicinal herbs
is a major component of Traditional Chinese Medicine and is often
practiced in combination with other modalities such as acupuncture,
tuina or shiatsu therapy. TCM professionals treating with herbs have
tremendous success in treating a variety of conditions ranging from
dermatological conditions to gastrointestinal problems to managing the
side effects of chemotherapy.
The Shiatsu School of Canada and
SSC Acupuncture institute offers career training in Chinese Medicinal
Herbs as a direct-entry program or as a post-graduate program for
acupuncturists. We are extremely excited to update you on some recent
advances and upcoming launches for this program.
