The SMAC program is clinically useful and taught by the best teachers. They genuinely care about the students' learning, along with their staff. I am so grateful to have had a chance to take this program. Knowing how to effectively and safely treat a myriad of musculoskeletal pain is a LAC bread and butter, and it's a must for those seeking to get the most out of what acupuncture has to offer. This program merges traditional and contemporary methods that helps to evolve the acupuncture profession. Thank you!

This course really fills in the missing pieces from the masters and doctoral acupuncture programs. The deep analysis of anatomy and palpation have added skills to my profession that have helped so many people. Any acupuncturist wanting to further understand the human body through the lens of TCM, yet feel confident enough to speak to any western practitioner, needs to take this course.
