As a leading Acupuncture & Acupuncture and Herbal medicine school with two convenient locations: Racine, Wisconsin, and Skokie, Illinois, MCAHM offers the most traditional education in acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, and nutrition in the Midwest region.

The four-year academic program can be completed in as little as 36 months, shorting the education an entire year. Students design their own schedules, and enrollment is tailored based on individual needs.

The Midwest College of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine was founded in 1979 and has been a fully accredited Acupuncture and Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine school since 1987. MCAHM believes in preserving traditional ideology and philosophies developed by ancient practitioners while incorporating current medical knowledge and techniques.

MCAHM offers a combined Bachelor of Science in Nutrition with a Master of Science in Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine.

ACUPUNCTURE AND HERBAL MEDICINE PROGRAM

The College’s Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine Program combines rigorous academic coursework with broad clinical experiences, leading to a Master of Science degree in Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine and a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition (TCM).

Students in the Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine Program study various forms of acupuncture, traditional herbs, formulas, nutrition, and Chinese food therapy. They are introduced to new clinical protocols based firmly upon Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles that combine nutritional supplements with herbal formulas. Students also learn which foods to recommend and which to avoid based on the TCM pattern and presenting complaints of the patient.

Education focuses on the “Zang Fu” system of physiology, pathology, diagnosis, and treatment strategy. Traditional pulse and tongue diagnosis aid the graduate in formulating a comprehensive treatment plan. This diagnosis is the style taught and practiced in China today at Universities of Chinese Medicine and their affiliated teaching hospitals.
