The only UK conference dedicated to acupuncture research

For the first time it will be jointly supported by the Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists as well as the British Acupuncture Council. Although their practice styles and settings may vary greatly, members of both organisations are increasingly affected by research issues and share common aims: boosting research education and understanding, influencing policy and encouraging participation.

This symposium provides:

  • Big picture research: the highest calibre researchers from the UK and abroad, delivering cutting-edge new research and expert commentary/review
  • Practitioner research: what can be done in your own practice? Practitioners share their ideas, results enthusiasm and the difficulties encountered
  • Research surgery: bring your ideas, questions and problems for a 1:1 discussion with an expert
  • Trade stands
  • Refreshments
