AB - The purpose of this paper was to propose the strategies for proactively changing the riryo education system in Korea. The first section reviewed the riryo education system in Japan and Korea, respectively. The next section identified the major problems with the current system in riryo education, such as high school curriculum inappropriate for career guidance of students with visual impairments, riryo content unmatched with the academic readiness of such students, challenges in the guidance of adult students, low level in the academic degrees of masseurs, inadequate educational resources in massage training centers, and the absence of research and higher education in the area of riryo. The following section proposed three strategies for restructuring the riryo education system as follows: (1) implementing the general track of curriculum in high school; (2) training masseurs and acupuncturists at the riryo department in the level of high school; and (3) establishing a higher education institution in the area of riryo.
