Objectives
The objective of this training program is to provide participants with the theoretical and practical knowledge necessary to make a diagnosis based on a clinical examination, prescribe acupuncture points, and master acupuncture treatment, including its indications and contraindications.
Expertise and Skills
The Medical Acupuncture Certification is the only training program recognized by the National Council of the Order of Physicians that authorizes the practice of acupuncture.
(This certification has replaced the DIU in acupuncture and is therefore considered by the Council of the Order of Physicians to be an additional guarantee of competence.)
