Is it really possible to learn Micro Needle Therapy via an online course?
Our answer would, of course, be yes! You're already highly skilled at needling and I have to reiterate, this option is currently ONLY available to qualified acupuncturists. The course features detailed HD videos of my whole protocol to accompany the course material and you'll have exclusive access to me throughout, to ensure that your treatments are carried out safely and effectively.

There are three comprehensive lessons to work through.

You'll need to fully complete all three lessons, including homework assignments and pass the lesson tests.
What are the lessons?
The lessons are divided into the following steps:

Lesson 2: The Step-by-Step Micro Needle Therapy Treatment
Will I have to take an exam to receive certification?
There are three tests in the course, one after each lesson. Each test confirms your knowledge of the previous lesson. It's possible to retake the tests, as the main objective is to ensure that you have a sound grasp of the treatment protocol.
Will I need to do assignments?
Yes, there are assignments after each lesson which need to be completed in order to move on to the next step. They're personally marked by Paul Adkins and feedback is provided.
