Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine Day, officially observed on October 24, is part of an effort to increase public awareness of the progress, promise, and benefits of Acupuncture and Oriental medicine. Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine Day is supported through a unique international partnership of organizations in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The partnership includes professional associations, research organizations and educational institutions.

Founded by a group of accomplished practitioners, Daoist Traditions College of Chinese Medical Arts began with solidarity of purpose: Striving to help restore the ancient traditions by sharing our clinical experience and passion for Chinese Medicine. We also believe that comprehensive education can prepare students for success. The name Daoist Traditions comes from the close relationship between the Dao and Chinese Medicine. This union has existed since the ancient beginnings of the Chinese culture. Oriental Medicine, much like the philosophical tradition of Daoism, encourages us to live in harmony with the seasons and to follow the principles of nature as a model for the ideal life.
