OUR FOUNDATION
We integrate Traditional Chinese Medicine, Korean Medicine, Japanese Medicine, microsystems, and non-invasive acupuncture therapies-teaching the history, philosophy, terminology, and clinical application of these time-honored healing arts.

YOUR INSTRUCTOR
“My first patient was me.”
Yadi Alamin began his journey as a patient searching for answers after experiencing a serious illness that did not respond to medication.
He went on to train for nearly a decade under a seventh-generation doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Oigong instructor before continuing his education: alongside the Dean of Pacific College of Oriental Medicine.
Today, with more than 26 years of clinical experience, he teaches the same principles that have shaped his own practice-combining traditional wisdom with modern, patient-centered innovation.
