When you enroll in Five Branches University, you choose to become part of the unbroken tradition of healing, passed down generation after generation in China. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is based on ancient, insightful and powerful wisdom developed over millennia by Daoists, Buddhists and Confucians. The mastery of this precious body of knowledge will provide you with: improved health and well-being, the ability to guide others to optimal health, and a fulfilling and prosperous career as a TCM practitioner.

As a member of our student body, you will feel the strong sense of community and support on both of our campuses. Faculty and staff work together, with not only a passion for the medicine, but also a genuine interest in your well-being, personal growth, and success as a TCM practitioner. We believe this supportive and respectful environment is the ideal place to learn, heal and excel, and the reason Five Branches students have gone on to become successful and esteemed practitioners of Chinese medicine across the nation and internationally.
