- Year One: Completion of the Foundations of Chinese Medicine.
- Year Two: Completion of the Acupuncture 1st year course.
- Year Three: Focus on Tuina massage techniques and treatments.
This structure ensures that students build a solid foundation before advancing to hands-on Tuina massage practice.

实践与实习
After completing the Foundations of Chinese Medicine, during every weekend of the first and second year of Tuina, there is a lot of practical training. Getting to know the course of the meridians, locating points and learning to apply needling techniques, moxa and cupping, are mostly trained in the first year. In the second year, the emphasis is mainly on case analyses and live diagnosing and treating patients. All this is done in class as well as in smaller groups under the supervision of the teachers.
In addition to the classes, the students follow a fixed number of hours of internship in acupuncture and/or Tuina clinics. This is possible both internally at Shenzhou and externally. The total number of hours of clinical internship is 300 hours.
