CITCM (Canadian Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine) is a Calgary-based college offering acupuncture, TCM, and massage therapy training. As the Canadian Branch College of Chengdu University of TCM (CDUTCM), they're the only acupuncture college in Canada offering a bachelor's degree through CDUTCM. Features a busy student clinic where patients receive treatment from students supervised by experts. Programs blend online learning with practical hands-on training.
The inception of CITCM Acupuncture & Massage Therapy Training unfolded from my personal healing journey within Traditional Chinese Medicine. After grappling with my own health challenges, I discovered the profound impact that acupuncture and TCM could have on physical and emotional well-being. This transformative experience ignited a passion within me to share this knowledge and empower others. From those early days, my vision has focused on creating a nurturing environment where aspiring therapists can thrive. I believe that education in TCM should not be confined to textbooks; it should be an immersive experience grounded in compassion and understanding. This calling to teach, coupled with my desire to help others heal, helped shape the essence of CITCM—a place where knowledge meets heartfelt practice, and where the roots of ancient healing traditions yield fresh blossoms.
