"IMAI is not like some of the other schools. I got a personal call when I missed a class and was set up for a mentoring class - one to one. Wow! They care. Seems they want their grads to be outstanding in medical acupuncture. Learned different techniques including dry needling and channel theory and I 'll continue learning acupuncture. Liked all of the Professors. Learned from each."
