Virginia University of Integrative Medicine

This past summer, VUIM's first cohort of study abroad students were sent to learn and experience all that Shanghai had to offer to graduate students of Acupuncture! Through our groundbreaking partnership with Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (SHUTCM), this special group of students experienced hospital-based training at the newest Affiliated Hospital of SHUTCM and were introduced to unique, time-honored techniques from the internationally educated and globally renowned clinical professors of SHUTCM. Our President, Dr. Lixing Lao - a globally renowned graduate of SHUTCM - arranged a local production team to capture a glimpse of the VUIM student experience in Shanghai while capturing feedback from the students about their special time in city known as the "Paris of the East." Take a look! To all of our current students - get ready to join your classmates next year on this special cultural and learning experience! #latergram #shanghai #vuim #acupuncture #wholehealth #TCM #integrativemedicine #studyabroad?
