Each day, our communities cry out for access to safe, effective and sustainable health care. Integrated traditional medicine is the answer to the universal need to improve the health of our communities, while honoring the individuals and the cultures within those communities. Through continued exploration and ongoing integration of ancient and modern medical knowledge, we are committed to our expanding mission to provide sustainable and effective community health care through our teaching clinics and collaborative community partners. In this way, as the Traditional Chinese Medical College of Hawai'i grows, we improve health care resources for our Big Island residents and visitors.

Located in the costal bay town of Hilo on the Big Island of Hawaii at the foot of Mauna Kea, our College offers a perfect backdrop for indoor and outdoor learning, where master healers of the future are trained in traditional and modern holistic healing arts. The strong elemental qi of the Big Island, with its active volcano and rhythms of ancient culture and knowledge, still offers a chance to be in balance with the movement of the moon and stars, the wind and the sea, the plants and the trees. In these modern times, Hawaii continues to call people looking to live in balance in this ancient way, exploring healthy sustainable lifestyles essential for survival of all culture.

Our curriculum includes Asian, Holistic and Western Medicine and seeks to teach mastery of integrated health through collaborative health care models. Our faculty members are experienced, dedicated and share a great diversity of wisdom. Our current program leads to a Master's Degree in Oriental Medicine (MSOM).

We invite you to become a part of the growing network of bare foot doctors, clinical specialists and healers who live, study and work here. Walk in the footsteps of the masters. Listen to your heart. If you are ready for a true challenge, a personal and professional voyage and transformation leading to new insights and skills to help heal our local and global communities, we are here to welcome you to this challenging but fulfilling path
