Medical Acupuncture for Veterinarians (MAV) is the only comprehensively scientific acupuncture course available for veterinarians. The curriculum evolves annually to integrate the latest and strongest evidential insights regarding the mechanisms and effectiveness of acupuncture. Our instruction incorporates these findings that may have originated in Chinese Medicine but which have inspired acupuncture researchers to hunt for the actual truth about how acupuncture works because myths and metaphors did not satisfy them. Nor do they satisfy us. With modern scientific methods such as functional brain imaging and a broad array of neurophysiologic assessment methods, these insights go well beyond how the ancient Chinese viewed medicine two millennia ago.
