On behalf of our staff, faculty and trustees, I hope that this site provides helpful information whether you are seeking to receive, study or research acupuncture. Thank you to all those who contribute to the ongoing quality of our courses and to this website, especially our students, staff, and colleagues within both healthcare and education. And a particular thank you to the Singapore based photographer, Chua Cherlyn, for her generosity and eye. I know that our staff will take care to answer any other queries you may have and I look forward to perhaps meeting you in our teaching clinic, at one of our preview days or in the collaborative development of healthcare services.

Welcome, to CTA.

Paul Hougham, Principal.
