Neuropuncture

What Neuropuncture does

Neuropuncture, Inc. is a Boynton Beach, Florida-based, privately-held education and certification company founded in 2004 by Dr. Michael Corradino. It commercializes a proprietary, trademarked, and patent-pending "Neuropuncture" system that translates classical Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) acupuncture into 21st-century neuroscience terminology, teaching licensed acupuncturists how to apply evidence-based electroacupuncture for targeted neuromodulation of the nervous system. The core technical framework consists of three components — Neuropuncture Neurophysiological Mechanisms, Treatment Principles, and Electrical Techniques — supported by 17 NCCAOM-approved continuing education courses and a content library of over 180 training videos and 80+ webinars.

The company operates a multi-tiered training ecosystem: NeuroLab online memberships (Silver at $1,500 + $99/month; Gold at $1,799-$3,500 + $99/month), hands-on workshops ($850-$1,500), a 56-week North American Mentorship Program ($5,800-$6,800), Practitioner and Instructor Certifications, and a Doctorate of Neuroscience Acupuncture (DNA) delivered in partnership with Akamai University. Distribution combines global online subscription access with in-person workshops at partner institutions (Five Branches University, Virginia University of Integrative Medicine, MARC Institute) and international teaching in Israel, Australia, New Zealand, Denmark, Belgium, and China. The company also bundles FDA-approved electroacupuncture devices from Pantheon Research and maintains a patient-facing practitioner directory as a referral channel.

The organization is effectively founder-led, with approximately three core instructors (Corradino plus Tanja Brekke and Bart Vermilya), no disclosed external funding, and revenue derived entirely from training, certification, and ancillary product sales. A separate 501(c)(3) non-profit foundation funds neuroscience acupuncture research. The addressable market consists of licensed acupuncturists and, indirectly, patients seeking evidence-based acupuncture providers.
