About
Calvin Crichton, Dr. TCM, Instructor
Dr. Calvin Crichton first became involved in Traditional Asian medicine through his life long study of Japanese and Chinese martial arts. Many of the martial arts systems he has studied over the past 40 years incorporate varying degrees of alternative medicine into their curriculum. As a result, it was only natural that Calvin begin to pursue a more formalized training in this field.
His background includes over 2000 hours of acupressure training, one diploma from the Ontario College of Traditional Chinese medicine, two Dr. TCM diplomas from both the Canadian College of Acupuncture and TCM in Bedford, Nova Scotia and the International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Vancouver. Further to this Calvin received a Traditional Japanese medicine Menkyo Kaiden (PHD equivalent) diploma from the Nippon Isshinho Nokkan Igakube in Toyama, Japan after several years undertaking a mentorship program.
Finally, Calvin has also had advanced training in Auricular Medicine under the direct tutelage of Dr. Li Chun Huang receiving a Master of Auricular Medicine diploma in that discipline.
