Module IV has been rescheduled to March 4-7, 2021 and April 22-25, 2021
We have made the decision that the first part of Module III: The Lower Extremities—held on October 15-18, 2020 and Module IV: The Neck, Shoulder and Upper Extremity—March 4-7, 2021 will be online webinars. There will be an increase in content with some didactic modifications to focus on this module. We will still be presenting a narrated cadaver dissection lab, a palpation lab and motor point locations and needle technique lab. Our goal is to provide you with the tools for our practical class, which we are still anticipating will run as scheduled in January 2021 at the Eastern School of Acupuncture in NJ.
