I went on the Shanghai study trip, and it was organised so smoothly from the first to the last day. Longhua Hospital had everything I expected, with excellent departments and doctors. Overall it was a great trip - highly recommend!

I am so happy I did the Herbal Course at Phoenix Academy. The course was very well organised with highly experienced TCM Doctors. Every lecture was well supported by two moderators who listened to the students' feedback, responded quickly and professionally. This course gave me the skills and confidence to modify and prescribe herbs to my clients.
