CM 523 - Acu-Moxa Points II (Point Actions)

Credit(s): 2.00

Acu-Moxa Points and Techniques I-III focus on the therapeutic actions of points. Location, name and category information are reviewed in the context of learning the traditional functions, as well as specific symptomatic indications for each point. Therapeutic functions correspond to treatment principles derived from Chinese pattern differentiation. Both Eastern and Western diseases are correlated to complete the therapeutic understanding of the points’ potential range and repertoire for treatment. The focus of the second class in the series is on the Spleen, Heart, Small Intestine and Bladder channels. The channel and acupoint system of Chinese medicine lay out a treatment modality that is both profound and therapeutically effective for a wide range of health conditions.
