Postgraduate Clinical study trip to Guangzhou, China

November 2010, duration 3 weeks

The College of Integrated Chinese Medicine is arranging a postgraduate clinical study trip to China to study acupuncture or Chinese herbs in collaboration with Guangdong Second Provincial Chinese Medicine Hospital.

This is a modern TCM hospital with 420 beds and 20 clinical departments. On average it has 2000 outpatients attending daily. All patients are treated according to TCM methodology.

What the course offers:

Clinical experience in one of China’s most modern TCM hospitals.
Guided clinical groups in which you will have the opportunity to treat patients under the supervision of senior TCM doctors.
In-house lectures from the hospital staff that are clinically orientated and translated where required.

This will be a hands-on clinical course suitable for qualified practitioners and advanced students who have received their license to practise.

In addition to the clinical course, we will be arranging the following social programme,
A guided tour around the city of Guangzhou.
A trip to nearby Hong Kong, to take in the sights, restaurants and shops.
A two-day trip to the nearby mountains, a chance to escape from city life and spend some time walking in the forests, visiting temples or just taking it easy.

November is an ideal time to visit this part of China with average temperatures ranging from 68 – 75 degrees.
