THSU is a close-knit family who cares about their students, faculty, and staff members. I have learned how to stimulate my mental health using Traditional Chinese Medicine, herbs, and acupuncture. My physical well-being is constantly being challenged to grow and become better while learning how to understand my own physical constitution. I have learned how to meditate, practice Qi Gong, talk to patients and, most importantly, treat each of them as if they were my own relative.
