Mission Statement

"To contribute to the medical care options of disadvantaged peoples worldwide through the teaching and application of Acupuncture.

Our Acupuncture Ambassadors, individual volunteer licensed acupuncture practitioners, have a threefold mission:

Share knowledge of Acupuncture with local medical practitioners, doctors, nurses, and medical assistants in developing countries, imparting basic theoretical and practical training to treat the most common illnesses faced by these medical practitioners.

In a war-torn world, there are countless victims suffering from PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and depression. Acupuncture is an effective modality for healing these devastating health issues. Using acupuncture points originally developed for drug addiction and used daily all over the U.S., the Acupuncture Ambassadors will use their skills to be of service to those who suffer from PTSD, depression as well as drug addiction.

In keeping with a time honored Japanese tradition of Acupuncture schools for the blind, Acupuncture Ambassadors will also train people afflicted with blindness in the theory and practical knowledge of Acupuncture to increase the vocational options of these individuals.

To this end our Acupuncture Ambassadors will spread the knowledge and value of Traditional Asian Medicine as a powerful, viable and timeless healthcare modality throughout developing nations in the 21st century."
