Life as a qualified acupuncturist
What Graduation Brings
It's different
Becoming a qualified acupuncturist has been described by the vast majority of our graduating students as a life changing experience.
It will open your eyes to your surroundings, to others and their needs, to your environment and to the far reaching aspects of peoples’ problems, health and ailments.
Your knowledge and skill will help you build strong rapport with many people, not just your clients.
On the personal side, you will qualify with a degree, having gained a thorough understanding of traditional five element acupuncture, its roots, philosophy and implementation.
"To my delight I saw that CTA offered the most interesting and professional course, structured in such a way that I could continue my employment whilst studying for my new profession. I have now fully qualified and enjoying my new vocation..."
In addition to a deeper understanding of how your own body works, you will have the knowledge and ability to care for it more effectively.
Practising acupuncture will give you years of pleasure, being able to help people get better, being able to make that all-important difference to their lives.
In Business as a Practitioner
Financially, you can control your destiny. A practice will be what you make it. As part of the course, we will teach you how to market your practice, keep proper records, as well as other practical aspects of running a successful clinic.
We can offer you a room in our clinic, at very reasonable rates. From here, you can run your practice or part of it as often as you wish, utilising our unique clinic set in beautiful gardens and of course having the use of our receptionist and clinic facilities.
"In the 2 years since I qualified my practise has grown to 4 days a week, which is what I hoped for, and I now wake up every morning looking forward to the day ahead..."
Many practitioners have two or three locations or clinics that they use on various days in the week, depending on their patients’ needs. Operating from our clinic say on a Monday and from their home on Wednesday and so on.
A well-marketed practice should be able to sustain at least 24 patients per week; you could do this running say only 3 days per week, giving you plenty of free time. This level of work will give you an income in excess of £45,000 per year.
Not bad with no boss, no rules, no office politics and lots of free time. Just think what you could do working 5 days per week!
Lifelong Learning
But learning doesn’t stop once you have qualified. We offer advanced studies where you can keep on top of new ideas, postgraduate courses were you can specialise in an area such sports injury, female needs, stress and many others.
You can come back to us and apply to join the teaching faculty, giving back to new students your knowledge and experience.
You are considering embarking on a new chapter in your life, one that will fulfil you, empower you, and grant you financial independence.
