Look inside the course below - of all the acupuncture courses in the UK, it is the only one that teaches you to practise actual acupuncture from day one to build your confidence with needles.

According to our students our acupuncture courses can be described as qualitative rather than quantitative. The intensity of contact study is much greater than that which would be the norm in a College of Higher Education.

Emphasis on practical skills over theory enable you to achieve the highest standards required for safe and effective practice - leading to professional earning capabilities.

Of all the acupuncture courses in the UK, Bodyharmonics is the only one run by Maria Mercati. She is a working therapist held in high esteem by her peers in China and Europe.
