Training

Joseph Adams, L.Ac., currently serves as an instructor and clinical supervisor at the Acupuncture and Integrative Medical College in Berkeley. Joseph has published articles relating to health, pulse diagnosis and Chinese philosophy, and also works as a peer review editor for The American Acupuncturist.

In Addition to receiving a Master’s Degree in Oriental Medicine, Joseph is also a second-generation acupuncturist, often calling upon needling techniques and formulas that were handed down to him.

In addition to his formal and family training, Joseph served for many years as a senior student to William Morris, PHD, L.Ac. Ultimately Joseph was entrusted with the mission of teaching the specialized pulse-taking lineages he mastered. Following in the footsteps of his teachers, Joseph continues  his own research of classical Chinese  literature, with the goal of bringing practical sytems to life.
