The School

The International School Academy is a distinguished subgroup of the Hellenic Corporation of Chinese Medicine (HCCM), established in 2011. HCCM is an official member of the World Federation of Acupuncture-Moxibustion Societies (WFAS).

Our Mission

Our mission is to promote the advancement and education of acupuncture and East Asian Medicine, integrating them into the professional practice of healthcare providers. We strive to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western medical traditions, fostering the effective use of acupuncture within clinical practice through the application of critical thinking and reasoning.

The Course

Our course is meticulously designed to encompass and honor all foundational principles, perspectives, and methodologies of Traditional Chinese Medicine, as practiced since ancient times. Additionally, we cover the neurobiological and biochemical responses induced by acupuncture, providing a scientific basis for its mechanisms. Evidence-based contemporary acupuncture techniques, such as trigger point Dry Needling, are also included.

Our Staff

Our faculty comprises internationally recognised experts in Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture. A big part of our lecturers are registered healthcare professionals (MDs, PTs, DOs, etc.), holding advanced degrees in both Chinese Medicine and Western allopathic health professions.

International Cooperations

We provide our students with the highest quality education and opportunities for growth and continuous learning. As a result, graduates of our program are equipped to further their clinical practice in acupuncture at universities and clinics in China, Thailand, and the Netherlands.
