New York College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (NYCTCM)'s Teaching Clinic
Affordable acupuncture treatments and Chinese herbal consultations at New York College of Traditional Chinese Medicine
New York College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (NYCTCM)'s Teaching Clinic offers affordably priced Acupuncture and Chinese Healing Arts to the community while providing our advanced students with a clinical internship.
Our interns are senior-level students who have passed a series of qualifying exams that allow them to diagnose and prescribe therapies for the patients who come to our clinic. Licensed Acupuncturists and Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners supervise our interns. Many of our supervisors have M.D. degrees from China, and all have considerable clinical and teaching experience.
Traditional Chinese Medicine or TCM encompasses both acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine. While acupuncture is perhaps the most widely recognized area of TCM, Chinese Herbal Medicine is also very important in your treatment. Chinese Herbal Medicine administers natural herbal formulas specifically designed to correct imbalances in the body, aiding in the treatment of disease. Our clinic provides Acupuncture Therapy, Herbal Prescriptions, Nutrition Counseling and Massage Therapy.
The World Health Organization has published a list of diseases & disorders that can be treated with acupuncture.
"This publication reviews selected studies on controlled clinical trials. Some of these studies have provided incontrovertible scientific evidence that acupuncture is more successful than placebo treatments in certain conditions. For example, the proportion of chronic pain relieved by acupuncture is generally in the range 55-85%, which compares favourably with that of potent drugs (morphine helps in 70% of cases) and far outweighs the placebo effect (30-35%)."
