Welcome Message

We are happy to announce we are in the process of redesigning a new website. Unfortunately, during this time membership applications will be unavailable.

Projected launch date of the new website is mid-November.

AMAAZ coordinated a meet-n-greet with Senator Nancy Barto, Chair of the Committee on Health and Human Services

Tuesday, September 6th from 6:30pm to 7:30pm. If you missed the meeting hear it HERE

Did you know?

Sen. Barto is the Chair of the Senate committee that our prior and future legislative proposals are vetted through. She is also a prominent and influential legislative member at the Capitol and throughout AZ.
Arizona (and the US, for that matter), is about to go through a major profound and notable transformation when it comes to how people choose to take care of their health.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, our healthcare system is on the precipice of flipping in OUR FAVOR — integrative alternative medicine! If we do not support our legislative champions, we could “miss the boat” on becoming THE HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL EXPERTS down at the Capitol and considered for appointments to make your medicine the top consideration for healthcare policy in AZ and, possibly, the United States.

About AMAAZ:

We are an association formed to have a voice for our TCM community. After many years, we have come to realize that we truly need a strong community to protect and preserve the medicine we practice and love, and to support every TCM practitioner in our state, and to work with and support the importance of our state acupuncture board.

We strongly feel that it is time for us to stand shoulder to shoulder and make a significant difference in our personal and professional community in honor of our 20th year of state licensing. We look forward to re-energizing and empowering our profession, to contribute to the well-being and excellence in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture throughout Arizona.

Mission Statement: To promote the science of Eastern medicine and acupuncture in Arizona while advocating for high educational and professional standards.

Vision Statement: To improve the public health, safety and welfare through integrated health care.
