Acupuncture and Massage College was originally founded in 1983 as the Acupuncture-Acupressure Institute (AIA), as was the first acupuncture school in Florida.

In 2000, the Acupuncture-Acupressure Institute was granted program accreditation by the Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (ACAOM). That same year, AIA changed its name to the Southeast Institute of Oriental Medicine (SEIOM), to reflect a broader commitment to the study of Oriental Medicine. In 2003, SEIOM was granted national-accreditation by Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC), the institution’s name was changed to Acupuncture and Massage College.
