Dragon Rises College of Oriental Medicine is expanding with a new campus in Bradenton to offer a hybrid distance education program for students to earn a Master’s Degree in Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine. Now enrolling for fall 2024, students can choose to either attend in-person or virtually, with hands-on courses completed at the campus during the year.  

Partnerships with clinics and facilities throughout Florida will also help distance education students gain clinical experience with a variety of internships and externships. For those on-campus, local institutions will provide the same pathways, along with the college’s own onsite clinic and Chinese Herbal pharmacy. Dragon Rises is the only accredited college that provides instruction based on Dr. Leon Hammer’s pulse diagnosis system. 

For those interested in a career transition or looking to become an Acupuncture Physician, Dragon Rises’ recent growth offers the training to produce successful, caring, and competent practitioners of Contemporary Oriental Medicine®. This will ultimately help more communities achieve the highest sustainable level of long-term wellness.
