Our Philosophy
ASM respects diversity among practitioners, generating cooperation and building a sense of community by sharing information, collaborating, and seeking input and involvement in decision and policy making by the membership. ASM also supports appropriate educational and competency standards for the profession and promotes research in acupuncture and Oriental medicine while remaining mindful that health is a reflection of the world-at-large and to promote and assist activities that nurture the health of our community, our nation and the world.
