About this course

Acupuncture is one of the principal components of a medical system commonly referred to as TCM – Traditional Chinese Medicine. By inserting fine needles into specific points on the body the acupuncturist can stimulate the body’s own healing response and help restore its natural balance. By harnessing the body’s own ability to cure itself, acupuncture can rebalance the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of the individual. Unlike Western drug therapy it is incredibly safe and has no unwanted side effects. People receiving acupuncture typically feel both relaxed and energised after treatment. Now is an exciting time to be studying acupuncture as modern science is confirming what acupuncture practitioners have known for centuries. If you go to our Links section on our website dedicated to Acupuncture you will be able to read about a lot of the research currently going on into acupuncture.

Additional entry requirements

Appropriate life experience or 240 points at ‘A’ level No previous practitioner experience or science qualifications are required. Many people studying acupuncture are doing so as a career change and may not have previous academic qualifications. This need not be as a barrier to becoming a successful practitioner! Our in-depth interview techniques will be able to establish if you are suitable to enrol on our course. We are not interested in taking you on as a student if we do not think you have the ability to succeed. Our aim is to graduate confident, accomplished practitioners. At interview we will be looking for your commitment to the subject, your ability to study in Higher Education (which may or may not include previous professional qualifications), your life experiences and how you have built upon them, and your ability with people. If you are a qualified healthcare professional in a related field such as an osteopath, physiotherapist or a conventional medicine practitioner you may be able to be exempted from certain units. Speak to our Director of Studies to find out more.
