Acupuncture and Clinical Neuroscience
The Carrick Institute is proud to welcome Acupuncturists to our programs! At the Carrick Institute, we are integrating traditional Chinese needling methods with a modern approach and knowledge of the neurology, neuroscience, and neurological rehabilitation associated with Acupuncture. The acupuncturist of the future understands these connections and uses this knowledge to provide the most effective treatment when working with neurological conditions.
Carrick Institute’s mission is to train Doctors of Oriental Medicine, Licensed Acupuncturists and Medical Acupuncturists in the art and skill of Acupuncture and Clinical Neuroscience.
