What graduates say
Carolyn Cook DOM, A.P. has been an acupuncturist for 14 years and that what she had to say about her training in the Hunyuan center:
"I wish I could have stayed there with you for several weeks. You had such a wonderful way with presentation. I learned so much in one week.....lots of information, but really so great.....I felt I just could not get enough even though my mind was starting to shut down. I will polish my skills and come back for a refresher course. We shall see.......Thank you for your time and Thank you for being such a great teacher. I have learned much from you as I feel I have been in the dark for a long time. Thanks for the new light......
regards Carolyn."
Hi Yaron Lao Shi,
I want to thank you for the great teaching last week. It was no doubt the most inspiring learning experience for me. Every patient was asking me about the classes because they all knew I was so looking forward to the trip. I told them you have taught me the most important principle of Chinese Medicine. In just one week, I have learned so much wisdom and depth of the Old Chinese Medicine, more than four years of learning in school. After learning from you, I feel almost wrong not to further study ( the classics! ) in order to understand and practice the essence of Chinese Medicine. You have shown me the way as a truly committed practitioner of Chinese Medicine. I see great hope and I am so grateful to have you as a teacher/mentor in our profession. Thank you SO MUCH!
I will be in touch in the future learning....
Best regards,
Vivian Yi Bin Shou L.Ac.,A.P.
