Which traditional Chinese medicine health training school is the best?

I have been working hard in the traditional Chinese medicine health care industry for almost 8 years. My friends and students have asked me this question more than a hundred times. To be honest, there is no absolute "top 1". It all depends on what you want after studying. The one with a high degree of adaptability is really good.

Many people prefer formal training courses affiliated with universities of traditional Chinese medicine, saying that teachers are all from majors and will not teach you false ideas about "curing all diseases." Once you have a solid foundation, you will go a long way. Some people complain that such courses are too academic. They start with three months of basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine, which is too tedious for people who just want to learn a craft and open a community shop. Last year, my little sister who opened a nail salon and wanted to add a shoulder and neck conditioning program initially signed up for an adult education health class at a local Chinese medicine university. She rushed to class after work and had to memorize the meridians and acupuncture points. After three weeks, she couldn't bear it anymore and quit. She turned around and found a practical class run by a local health chain brand that has been open for 12 years. She practiced her techniques on a simulated man every day. She became familiar with the commonly used conditioning routines for shoulders, neck, spleen and stomach in just a month, and now she has made an extra 20,000 yuan in the first month after adding items in the store. However, she also complained that last time a customer asked her why she had dry mouth and bad breath after moxibustion. She couldn't answer for a long time, so she finally took a photo of the customer's tongue coating and asked me to ask. After all, such short training courses did not cover syndrome differentiation at all.

If you don’t just do regular projects after studying, but want to work as a technician in a professional physical therapy institution, or even plan to become a Chinese medicine practitioner to obtain a practicing certificate in the future, then this kind of short and fast chain practical class is not enough. In this case, it is really recommended to give priority to those who have a formal school license, and the teaching teacher holds a practicing physician certificate or For institutions that offer senior Chinese medicine health instructor certificates, don’t believe the propaganda that “getting the certificate in seven days guarantees you a monthly income of over 10,000 yuan.” Last year, our industry group even had some trouble. A young man signed up for this kind of seven-day crash course. The certificate he got was printed by the institution itself. When he applied for a job at a chain health center, people didn’t recognize him at all, and he didn’t even get an interview chance.

In fact, choosing a training school is like formulating a health cream. There is never any magic formula. It all depends on your needs. If you want to be an Internet celebrity health IP, those Internet celebrity training courses that understand operations are suitable for you. The class not only teaches basic health knowledge, but also teaches you how to shoot short videos and design traffic-draining products. I know a little girl in 1998 who signed up for such a class and is now doing community health care. You can make tens of thousands of dollars a month just by selling customized moxibustion bags. Of course, this kind of class is also controversial. Many people with a professional background say that their content is not rigorous and they often make gimmicks like "curing migraines in three minutes." It is easy to step on the red line of false propaganda if you are not careful.

If you really have to choose, I would like to give you the most practical advice. Don’t be in a hurry to pay the full payment. First, find an institution and ask for two trial classes to experience it on site to see if you can keep up with the pace of the class. Then ask two experienced students who have graduated to ask about the situation. It is more useful than checking hundreds of rankings online. By the way, if a salesperson comes up and tells you, "You will be a health master after taking our course," don't hesitate, turn around and leave. The more knowledgeable people are in the traditional Chinese medicine health care industry, the less they dare to brag. Most of those who dare to brag like this are people who want to make quick money from you.
