Yang-chu Higgins, LAc EFT-Adv graduated ’07 from Yo San University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, in Los Angeles. Upon obtaining his BA from the University of Iowa in Anthropology during the early 90s, he pursued advanced studies at the Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Each afforded opportunities to study Chinese at Beijing University and ethnology at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (中国科学院), a period totalling a little less than three years.
Yang-chu, named by his father for an ancient Chinese philosopher, favours conceptualising medical practice as “Conscious Acupuncture,” because it resonates with the principles of Jazz. This translates into spontaneous responses to palpable findings based upon a foundation of ever-growing knowledge disseminated by those venerated as “masters,” Jazz Medicine Masters he fancies.
