FSOMA Call for Submissions to FSOMA Journal

The FSOMA Journal is interested in articles for upcoming Journals. The success of the Journal relies on the articles we receive.

They are reaching out to individual practitioners, organizations, and to businesses within the profession.

They currently have three Journals each year. The deadline(s) for each issue are:

• February 15
• June 15
• October 15

These dates represent the latest date that we may receive a submission. They request that you send your submission to us as much in advance of this as possible. To be considered, they need to be up to 900 words (shorter is okay), and must be related to the Oriental Medical profession. FSOMA specifically desire articles that are related to the clinical elements of the profession, such as

• Acupuncture
• The use of Chinese herbs
• Practice management
• Electrical stimulation
• Historical uses
• Modern uses
• Gua sha, massage, cupping

But also seek pieces related to business, ethics, current events, and/or the human experience of being in this profession.

If you are a practitioner, FSOMA would love an article on an interesting or challenging case you faced in your clinic.

Articles will be reviewed and chosen by the Journal Committee, and may be edited to provide optimal grammar and flow.

Articles may not directly promote a specific product, but if an article is submitted by someone related to a specific company, a short byline at the end can tell readers about the author and the company.

All submissions should contain a short byline (2 to 3 lines) on the author.

Please submit articles to ellen@fsoma.com with a copy to director@fsoma.com.

Direct any questions to ellen@fsoma.com.

The next deadline is October 15th, 2009.
