Classical Five-Element Acupuncture: Beginning The Journey

Classical Five-Element Acupuncture, in the Worsley tradition, is one of the most complete, comprehensive, and far-reaching systems of medicine in the world. There are no shortcuts or magic formulas. You will not be able to fully practice this system after one weekend, but you will learn to identify and resolve potentially life-threatening energetic blocks, any of which, until removed, will hinder or prevent your patient from getting well. You will learn to develop and use your senses, pulse taking, and rapport skills as powerful diagnostic tools, and you will come to understand and manage your patients in a whole new way. The seminar will cover: ~ The mental & spiritual levels of the Five-Elements, Twelve Officials, & specific acupuncture points ~ Diagnosing the needs of the mind and spirit ~ How this system addresses physical pain and illness ~ Clinical interaction with patients ~ Rapport skills and patient management ~ Pulse diagnosis within the Classical Five-Element System ~ Detecting and resolving life-threatening energetic blocks ~ Treatment planning
