What is the Neuro- Meridian Acupuncture Intensive Program?
The Neuro-Meridian Acupuncture Certification Program is a post-graduate advanced training modeled after the Professional Practice Certificate program offered at York University (Toronto Canada) founded by Dr Chiang.
The certification program covers how to treat pain and neurological dysfunction informed by a neuroanatomical understanding of the body while adhering to Classical Chinese Medicine theories to provide patient-centered care.
The Neuro- Meridian Acupuncture Intensive Program includes 78 contact hours of lecture, practical training, demonstration and clinical hands-on skills practicum.
It will be conveniently delivered in three modules. Each module is held over four consecutive days.
Like all the other workshops in the series, Module 2: Lower Extremity & Torso is taught independently of the other modules.
You do not have to have complete a module in order to do another module.
And of course you can apply this research and teaching into your clinic immediately.
Complete module 2 and change the way you treat... take the whole series and revolutionise your practice.

Dr Richard Tan and the Balanced Method: The Origin
The Origin of Huai Dan 懷聃
As followers of Dr. Richard Tan know, he was an amazing man who poured his heart and soul into the creation of the world-renowned Balance Method. Born into a family dedicated to Chinese medicine, he was always interested in acupuncture and began his studies and treatment of patients in Taiwan before moving to the United States in 1977.
After an extensive education, he earned his doctoral degree in San Diego at an Oriental Medicine school and opened his practice in 1989 to great success.
However, Dr. Tan was not one to rest on his laurels. With each of the tens of thousands of patients he treated, he extracted something new that helped him improve his needle techniques or fine-tune and elevate his Balance Method system.
Dr. Tan’s Chinese given name was “Teh-Fu” 譚特夫 (“maverick man” in Chinese) but he styled himself as “Dan” 聃 (assuming Lao Tzu’s first name) and “Wu-Bian” 無邊 (“infinite”). In honor of his chosen name, The Academy of Acupuncture was also founded under the Chinese name “Huai Dan” 懷聃.
This name conveys the Academy’s mission to serve as the facilitator to carry on the great tradition of Dr. Tan and his systematic Balance Method on his honorable behalf.

WHY DR HAN IS THE NUMBER 1 STUDENT TO TEACH THE BALANCE METHOD
In classes, I’ve told many other senior students of Dr. Tan that Dr. Han actually teaches BETTER than Dr. Tan did. I believe that is because she was the main one keeping everything organized for MANY years as his closed door apprentice. Dr. Tan guided her in practice and primed Dr. Eileen Yue-Ling Han as his number one student to properly teach The Balance Method....I am forever grateful for you and Dr. Richard Tan.”

“I’ve been in practice since 1999 and a committed student of The Balance Method since March 6, 2006. I have taken ALL Dr. Richard Teh-Fu Tan’s classes and I’m catching up on all of Dr. Eileen Han’s classes that she has inherited to pass on her master’s legacy.
In classes, I’ve told many other senior students of Dr. Tan that Dr. Han actually teaches BETTER than Dr. Tan did. I believe that is because she was the main one keeping everything organized for MANY years as his closed door apprentice. Dr. Tan guided her in practice and primed Dr. Eileen Yue-Ling Han as his number one student to properly teach The Balance Method....I am forever grateful for you and Dr. Richard Tan.”
Lindsay Trottier, DACM LAc.
San Diego CA, USA.
“Dr Eileen Han and the teachers of The Academy of Acupuncture (TAA) are doing a wonderful job of honoring Dr Richard Tan’s legacy by teaching Balance Method Acupuncture in an easy to learn and practical way. Dr Han and the instructors of TAA provide decades of knowledge from learning directly with Dr Richard Tan, and decades of clinical and business experience... If you take one seminar or one hundred, you will always walk away with practical tools to apply in your clinic as soon as you get home. The return on investment is amazing. I highly recommend working with this group of people!”
