ONE Needle … ONE Weekend …
TurboAcupuncture® is a system of Chinese medicine that releases most patients from pain using a single needle, inserted less than one millimetre. It is taught to doctors in one weekend.
One needle. One weekend.
How it works
Chinese medicine has known around 500 acupuncture points for centuries. TurboAcupuncture uses twelve of them. From the location of pain, the T.A.N. Navigation system guides the practitioner step by step to the single point that will release it.
Most patients are released from pain in the treatment room, typically within seconds. Not over weeks. Not with a course of appointments.
With only twelve points, a practitioner can address almost the entire body. That simplicity is what makes the method teachable in a weekend.
No prior acupuncture training needed. Dr. Tan distils more than twenty years of practice into a single weekend, and certifies what you can do at the end of it.
