Healing & Acupuncture College Arvostelua 6

The Healing and Acupuncture College is a wonderful place to learn the fundamental aspects of acupuncture and the art of healing using Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Five Elements.
You are able to start practicing with needles and needle techniques, as a student, straight away.
Jamie is a very good teacher. He is patient and able to get his point across very easily. The weekends at the HAC practical is where you get the hands on experience needling your fellow students.
There is a lot of study matter to go through between the weekends, and the onus is on you to get through that, however, Jamie has supporting material on the HAC student portal.
This course is well worth the £££'s and will absolutely enable you to achieve your acupuncture dreams.
I started my acupuncture course in September 2024 and qualified in May 2025, and I haven't looked back!

Becoming an acupuncturist was a dream I had for decades. After studying at university for many years, I became disillusioned with the system, and the idea of going back for another three years didn’t feel like it would give me the kind of education I was seeking - something that offered not just theory and skills, but soul, depth, and humanity.

I cannot express how grateful I am to have found the Healing and Acupuncture College. Not only do you learn TCM and Five Element acupuncture, but you do so in an environment that fosters personal growth, healing, and genuine human connection. Clinical skills are essential, and the college teaches them brilliantly - but what truly sets it apart is the way it integrates healing and personal development into the training. This is something profoundly unique, and it’s what makes this course exceptional.

Some may wonder whether to take a shorter course or commit to a longer one. What this course demonstrated to me is that it delivers everything you need to become an effective and knowledgeable acupuncturist. The path of TCM is a lifelong journey - no amount of schooling can replace what you learn through years of practice - but this course equips you with the solid skills and deep understanding needed to embark on that path and truly hit the ground running.

The principal, Jamie, is an outstanding teacher - caring, supportive, inspiring - and he delivers extremely complex knowledge with remarkable ease.

The school is also set in a beautiful location, one that inspires healing simply by being there.

The course very quickly amazed me by how much it was giving in theory and practice. It is well structured and logical, with clear videos, thorough explanations and feedback. Jamie and his assistants Flo and Sam were very helpful, open-minded and ready to answer any questions we had, creating the atmosphere of harmony combined with well understood knowledge and little hints on how to do the "magic". We had a small group, which allowed for tailored practice and close communication. The course gave me not just the knowledge, but also facilitated the specific way of thinking to understand the needs of the patient, plus built enough confidence to do the treatments. The advanced part of the course on fertility was simply mind blowing, and ear acupuncture course was an excellent addition that can be used every day in any situation. Thank you so much for bringing the light of acupuncture magic into the daily life!

I would thoroughly recommend the HAC college at Bath. I had the most amazing time there learning an ancient treatment and have made life long friends too.
One year later its my job! And the most satisfyingly worthy job I've ever had!
Jamie is professional, so knowledgeable and you can ask him anything! He's also been very supportive post graduating too.

Graduating from The Healing and Acupuncture College this June has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life. From the very first day, I felt welcomed into a warm, supportive, and inspiring community that not only taught me acupuncture but also encouraged deep personal growth and self-discovery.

Jamie, the head of the college, is an absolutely incredible teacher and leader. His passion, wisdom, and kindness radiate through everything he does. He has such a gift for explaining complex concepts in a clear and grounded way, always connecting them back to the heart of what acupuncture truly is: healing on every level: physical, emotional, and spiritual. His authenticity and compassion set the tone for the whole college and make the learning environment feel deeply safe, nurturing, and empowering.

The teaching team (Sam, Flo and Jamie) as a whole is phenomenal, experienced, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in each student’s journey. The balance between practical training, theory, and clinical experience is perfectly designed, allowing you to graduate feeling confident, capable, and ready to step into practice.

This course didn’t just teach me acupuncture; it completely changed my life. If you’re considering studying acupuncture, The Healing and Acupuncture College is the place to do it. You will learn from the best, grow in ways you never expected, and leave truly transformed.

HAC has provided me with a wealth of knowledge on acupuncture and other natural healing practices without causing much distress, but still with the level of detail that is required when dealing with health and safety requirements by the UK regulations. It was a pleasure being in that inclusive and caring environment, where a lot of wisdom can be shared in person but also with the assistance of modern technology when required for online studying. Jamie and the others instructors of the course where very experienced in their field, and have allowed my learning journey to be very practical and insightful. Their dedication as therapists are undoubtfully, a source of inspiration for anyone who would like to become a professional acupuncturist by attending this College.
