I haven’t started college yet and I have been confused on the answers I’ve been getting, but what do I need to do for college to get into this field? I’ve seen stuff about accredited schools and all that but was also told I can go to community college for my regular 4 years before medical school. Do I need to pick a specific school to be able to get into medical school or can I go to a community college for my 4 or even the first two?
Thanks for the video Dr. Heyne. My name is Chieli :) I am 25 and graduated with a bachelor's in Global Studies (international studies) in 2018. I am teaching ESL right now but I do not feel like this is my end goal. For years following graduation I wanted to go to Med School but a part of me just felt like it didn't fit given my more rounded interests. Wasn't my dharma I suppose. Anyways, I am still searching, for sure, to discover whatever it is I am meant to do. I am very interested in teaching/mentorship, language, culture, spirituality, and healing. For this reason I have been recently drawn to TCM. I came across your channel while trying to learn the "basics" of accupuncture these past couple of weeks. I would like to learn more about what you do. I am quite spiritual but also don't just buy into anything given to me so I definitely am having difficulty with some of these topics as my instinct is instantly to be like, "something seems a little voodoo-like here". It's good to question but I definitely don't want to write this off just because it is so different than western medicine. Thanks for the video. Hopefully you see this. I saw your video on how to choose a TCM school and really understood why you chose the school you went to and not one of the more westernized TCM places. If I decided to go down this road, I'd want something more traditional as well given my values and interests. Have a good one my friend!
@Spencer Young Then do you acknowledge that much of the traditional western medicine taught in medical school is unethical? I'm not a TCM practitioner so I have nothing to needlessly defend here, but if you say that TCM is unethical by its medical assumptions then you must also denounce western medicine by how it fails to: treat patients by their root cause issues instead of passing out pills to band-aid underlying problems, politicize medicine because of pharmaceutical companies thereby swaying their decision making and how they treat or decide to not treat certain patients, and the utter manipulation of medical data to mislead the public. Don't agree with TCM's approach for treatment, that is fine, but at least be just as judgmental, if not more I'd hope, of Western Medicine. You need life threatening surgery, or something requiring immediate/invasive intervention? Absolutely Western Medicine has its place. But TCM evaluates a person as an entire organism rather than an isolated disease. That at least seems logical to me from a day to day practice of medicine.
Have you tried it and not had any success? I was so sceptical as I am very scientifically minded. It has made an 80 percent improve to my debilitating long covid symptoms, bedridden and have not worked for 2.5 years Last 6 weeks, since starting this treatment, in Australia, some kind of magic happened
@@BigBlakMan-hr9mb they don’t do proper research, they came to their conclusions via literally just thinking and coming up with something. Any time they have a medicine that works it is possible it does something f but they clearly came to that conclusion in a false and unreliable way. That’s why there are so many bullshit random things it’s based on. That’s why they always talk about a form of energy called qi or Chi which literally just doesn’t exist. It’s just not there. I’m sorry but if I made a special pill that cured headaches sometimes and I told you it’s based on a form of energy called pompom that I theorized, you probably wouldn’t trust me. Even IF my pill sometimes helped your headache, you couldn’t possibly trust that the pill actually works the way I, the inventor thinks it works. In essence, when Chinese medicine is right, it’s on accident. And that’s just a fact. Because they don’t follow any sort of scientific process. No procedures of verification. Sticking needles in random places will SOMETIMES alleviate very specific kinds of pain or nerve issues. But they damn sure weren’t correct about the needles redirecting the flow of qi. Clearly the REAL explanation is that sometimes the needle will touch or pierce the affected area, or a nerve related to the affected area. So what’s the more likely explanation? Magic is real? Or sometimes people get things right even if they believe in absolutely retarded shit? Qi has never been measured. It’s never been observed. It’s never been calculated. It’s never been anything. Because it isn’t there. It doesn’t exist. Isn’t it strange? If it wasn’t discovered or invented or observed or measured, how did the first person know it was there? Either some god came and told them, or they fucking made it up. What’s more likely? The person to first discover this would have had to either collected evidence of this form of energy, in the form of a measurement or a calculation BEFORE announcing its existence. But in this case, strangely, the claim came first, and THEN the search for evidence began. And now, thousands of years later, nobody has observed it, calculated it, measured it, or even theorized it. Because it isn’t there. Our physical model of the universe operates perfectly well without the assumption of Qi’s existence. Which means it’s more than like not real. Thanks
In korea, it is a real doctor...
The smartest students go to college of korean medicine.
I came across your 2 channels and like the style of your videos. Good job man!
So if someone is sick with a cold, on average how long does it take to treat them with traditional Chinese medicine?
Thank you for the great explanation

Find an accredited integrative medicine school or Chinese medicine school to find our their pre-req's they require

Hello! I'm about to enter Chinese medicine and I would like to know if you made the jump and could possibly tell me your experiences!
Cheers!
@@cbmlgia Indeed my friend! I happy you are, and I wish you will continue to be so. Best regards
Please do not become a Tcm practitioner. Please. That’s unethical. It’s all based on nonsense.

Good info thanks a lot.
I don't want to learn acupuncture T.T I want to learn Chinese herbal medicine
Very intelligent culture.

Why do you think there are so many chinese?
It’s basically a scammer
Have you tried it and not had any success?

Explain that.
