The Hub of Paediatric Acupuncture (HOPA) directory
The Hub of Paediatric Acupuncture (HOPA) directory is an ever expanding list of acupuncture practitioners worldwide, all of whom are well-qualified in paediatrics. In order to be listed in the directory, practitioners must have completed an initial acupuncture training to degree level (usually a three to four year course, depending on where in the world they trained), and to have done extensive post-graduate training in paediatrics.
