What this is

A clinical mentorship in diagnosis and treatment.

Are you unsatisfied with your outcomes when treating orthopedic issues? Did you not get enough ortho instruction in acupuncture school? Do you prefer learning in small groups with one-on-one instruction? If yes to any of these, this could be the perfect opportunity for you!

AMP focuses on three things, in order of emphasis:

Needle technique. Hands-on practice, corrected in real time, with a strong focus on palpation and point location.

Diagnostics, assessment, & case management. Working through real cases, together.

Practice-management questions. Dedicated time to discuss challenges in running an office.

Six practitioners per cohort. A short application and interview ensure it's the right fit.

What's included

Five classes, shadowing, a 1:1, a forum.

Five class meetings

At Adam's clinic in Fairmount - Needling practice, review motor and trigger point locations, orthopedic assessment, case discussion.

Clinical shadowing with Adam

About Adam

Over twenty years of clinical acupuncture experience.

Adam is an acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist licensed by the PA Board of Medicine and certified in Oriental Medicine by the NCCAOM. He graduated in 2004 with a Master's in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine from the New England School of Acupuncture.

He began studying orthopedic acupuncture with Matt Callison in 2008 and has continued developing advanced skills in sports medicine and advanced needling techniques. As Chief Editor, he helped Matt complete and publish the landmark textbook Sports Medicine Acupuncture. He has also completed Poney Chiang's Neuro-Meridian Integrative Acupuncture Certification program — and is lead author on a manuscript of Poney Chiang's research, which was recently published in the journal Medical Acupuncture.

He contributed to four clinical trials at the University of Pennsylvania on acupuncture and cancer symptom management — all published in peer-reviewed medical journals.

Common questions

A few details.

Who is this for?

Licensed acupuncturists who want structured review of orthopedic acupuncture techniques and case managment in a small group setting. For those who are struggling with treating orthopedic and musculoskeletal conditions. It's for practitioners whose results plateau after a few visits. It is for those who didn't get sufficient training in orthopedic acupuncture in school. Or maybe for those who want an in-depth review of orthopedic technique.

What does a meeting look like?

Three hours on Thursday morning at Adam's clinic in Fairmount. Starts with a short lecture on a specific othopedic topic/body region. Followed by a demonstration and needling practice. Case discussions and other questions throughout.

How does the application work?

Since this will be such a small group, a short written application and a brief interview will help Adam ensure that you are a good fit for the program. Cohorts are capped at six people; a minimum of four is required to run the program.

What does tuition cover?

$1,000, paid in two installments. The first installment is due at the time of acceptance/registration, while the second installment is due by August 15, 2026. Tuition covers all five classes, clinical shadowing, the 1:1 tea or lunch, and the online forum.

Are CEU's available for this mentorship?

NCCAOM CE credits are currently pending (though not guaranteed), we do expect them to be approved and available by the time the course starts. We are applying for a total of 15 CE credits for completion of the mentorship.

What's the cancellation policy?

Full refund 45+ days before the start. 50% refund 30–45 days prior. Non-refundable under 30 days. A $75 cancellation fee and 5% credit-card transaction fee apply to every cancellation.
