The City College of Acupuncture

03/08/2025

Nearly at the end of my British Acupuncture Council approved ‘3 year Licentiate in Acupuncture’ at the City College of Acupuncture in London. I am so excited to soon be launching my career in Acupuncture! I can’t wait to make a difference to people’s wellbeing and as a bonus, I get to be my own boss!

After 20 years of working in jobs that weren’t really me, I am so happy to have chosen to retrain in such a meaningful line of work where I am going to support people on their healing journeys, treating them holistically and as an individual.

Acupuncture was definitely the right choice for my future career path, could it be the right choice for yours? 🙏

📍 At the City College of Acupuncture, we 3rd years run a weekly Student Clinic

✨ Before clinic opens, it's discussion time — today we practiced ancillary treatments:

👂 Auricular acupuncture
🌿Moxibustion
🔥 Cupping

✨ At midday, we open the clinic to our patients — and the afternoon flies by in a whirl of tongues, pulses, points, and needles!

When I reflect on my time learning acupuncture at CCA something I really cherish is how the college encourages you to learn how to learn. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all thing, its about discovering what resonates for you and how you can best engage with the material and concepts.

✨As someone with Dyslexia I was given extra support by CCA that I had never had in school, and I feel this made such a massive difference to my learning experience as well as helping me to understand how I can feel most confident in my learning process. During my time at CCA I discovered that the best way for me to learn, and to feel excited about learning is visually - the images in these slides are just a handful of the visual resources and memory aids I made for myself during my studies at CCA.

The third slide is a pencil illustration, of a critter looking at its belly showing the pathway of the spleen luo channel. The fourth slide is a digital illustration of a face looking forwards on a black bag round showing some acupuncture points on the face.) Image author credits: Lixi
