Other Modalities

AOMA student interns practice Medical Qigong and Asian Bodywork as a part of their clinical education. Please contact the main campus clinic for appointment times.

Medical Qigong works with the qi of individuals without the use of needles. It is well suited for very sensitive people, children, and people in poor health. It involves working subtly with a person’s qi, or energy, in ways that are non-invasive and somewhat akin to Reiki. Medical Qigong is well suited for the following disorders: stress, anxiety, depression, headache, insomnia, poor memory, poor concentration, hypertension, PMS, perimenopause syndrome, asthma, and digestive issues.

Asian bodywork has been practiced in China for over 2,000 years and is now considered an important healing modality in Chinese medicine. In this needle-free, hands-on therapy, Asian bodywork practitioners relieve a number of disease conditions and nurture health by rolling, tapping, and applying pressure to increase circulation and relieve pain throughout the body. Asian bodywork is used to effectively treat a wide range of musculo-skeletal conditions, including orthopedic injuries, chronic pain, and anxiety. It is also used successfully in stroke rehabilitation.

Clinical Theater

Clinical Theater treatments are available one to three days a week, depending on the term, at the South AOMA campus only. A licensed acupuncturist performs the entire treatment with 10-15 students watching and listening. Clinical Theater treatments and herbs are free to the patient. Patients are limited to two Clinical Theater appointments per term per class.

Integrative Clinics

AOMA's clinical internship offers our students hands-on experience and is a means of service to the greater Austin community.

Our campus and off-site clinic opportunities.

AOMA is one of the leading institutions of acupuncture and Chinese medicine in the country. We are also active members of our local community. In addition to our Herbal Outreach program, AOMA serves the public by offering accessible acupuncture and Chinese medicine in a variety of integrative clinics in Austin. Many of them are in underserved areas. These clinics give AOMA students the opportunity to provide accessible healthcare to a wide range of patients and also to educate the public and other health care providers about acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. This experience not only gives our students an opportunity to contribute to the wellbeing of the local community. It also prepares them to open their own clinical practices or work within integrative Western medical settings.

  • People’s Community Clinic - In 2004 the AOMA Student Clinic increased their treatment opportunities by adding the free-of-charge acupuncture clinic inside of the People’s Community Clinic located in North Austin at 1101 Camino La Costa, 78752, (512) 478-4939. Here, low-income patients may be referred by their Western medical practitioner for free acupuncture treatments performed by AOMA student interns. This clinic is currently offered on Wednesday evenings. Appointments may be scheduled through the People’s Community Clinic.

  • Seton Healthcare Family's McCarthy Community Clinic – In 2011 the AOMA Student clinic added low cost acupuncture treatments inside of the Seton McCarthy Community Clinic in east Austin at 2811 East Second Street, Austin, TX 78702, (512) 324-4930. Here, low-income patients may be referred by their western medical practitioner for $5 acupuncture treatments by AOMA student interns. This clinic is currently offered on Wednesdays & appointments may be scheduled through the Seton McCarthy Community Health Center.

  • Veterans Affairs Austin Out Patient Clinic – Late in 2016, AOMA Student Clinic expanded to serving veterans at the VA’s Austin Out Patient Clinic at 7901 Metropolis Drive, Austin, TX 78744. Veterans with chronic pain and on opioids may be referred for acupuncture by their primary care provider. The clinic is on Fridays.
