RESEARCH

Research in acupuncture and Chinese Medicine helps us to communicate with outsiders, like patients, medical providers and policymakers.  While it is not everyone’s cup of tea and has its limitations within our profession, the evidence we can show supports our work and our case. It helps us position our work in a better light with the public. 


Whether you want to improve your communication with patients and medical providers, understand “how it works”, or see how much evidence we have, this is the page for you. 

 

If you are writing your paper and like us to give it the spotlight, don’t hesitate to contact us, we would love to do that.
