Blue Dragon Acupuncture

I started studying and practicing acupuncture about ten years ago. My training has included many months in Chinese hospitals and private clinics. Over the years I taught myself to read Chinese, which is of considerable benefit in clinical practice, because the vast majority of medical literature is written in Chinese and is unlikely ever to be translated, because the market for it is so small. This means that there is, in effect, a glass ceiling for English-speaking practitioners who do not read Chinese. Once they have accessed and absorbed the literature available in English, which is limited, there is no way for their clinical skills to progress.

And so by that rationale, you would think that a native Chinese practitioner would be ideal. I'm afraid this is not necessarily true (though some of them are really excellent).
