Series Overview

Learn to detect the exact location of Channel Qi aberrations with your hands. These courses will go through step-by-step the process of finding and utilzing specific styles of needle insertion that directly restore correct Channel flow at the point of the aberration. Advanced concepts and practices will also be covered and illustrated through the use of recorded case studies and examples.

Please note: It is highly recommended you complete at least one of these prerequisite items prior to completing this course: Watch a 1-hour recording of Janice's Advanced Channel Theory presentation and/or read the first 4 chapters of Tracking the Dragon, by Janice Walton-Hadlock. Registrants of this course should also try feeling Channel Qi prior to the course so that they have a sense of their ability.

As well, it is required that Course 1 is completed before Course 2.

Course Overview

You can know exactly where to place acupuncture needles, and why. Learn to detect, with your hands, the exact location of Channel Qi aberrations - the root of all mental and physical illness. Then discover specific styles of needle insertion that directly restore correct Channel flow at the point of the aberration – as opposed to hit-or-miss, hope-for-the-best treatments. Channel Qi aberrations, classically referred to as “Channel Qi Doesn’t Go Through,” are the energetic drivers behind all health problems. Channel Qi blockages occur in highly specific, individualized locations – and you can detect these with your hands. These blockages force the Channel Qi into aberrant patterns, which then lead to compromised health. Stubborn physical or emotional blockages are only rarely diminished by distal-point or “indicated point” treatments. But when you breach these Channel Qi obstructions by strategic needling in the exact vicinity of the blockage, instantaneous healing often ensues. You already have an innate ability to detect Channel Qi. Develop it. Please note: It is highly recommended you complete at least one of these prerequisite items prior to completing this course: Watch a 1-hour recording of Janice's Advanced Channel Theory presentation and/or read the first 4 chapters of Tracking the Dragon, by Janice Walton-Hadlock. Registrants of this course should also try feeling Channel Qi prior to the course so that they have a sense of their ability.

Course Objectives

  • Learn to differentiate, using hand-detection, when Channel Qi is running correctly, backwards, or stopping.
  • Learn needle insertion techniques that directly rectify Channel Qi aberrations.
  • Learn to differentiate between the normal and healthy patterns of Channel Qi flow when a person is in parasympathetic, sympathetic, sleep, or dissociated (shock) mode.
  • Anyone can learn to detect channel Qi, but it requires practice to understand what one is feeling. The demonstrations in this class will be directed at increasing confidence in recognizing the Channel Qi sensations experienced by the hands, and learning what the different sensations signify.
  • To come away with a clear sense of how to feel Channel Qi and how to develop and test a treatment plan based on the aberrations in Channel Qi; learning confidence in one's ability to assess is also a key goal in this course, and this is best achieved through practicing.

Course Outline

0 hrs - 1 hrs
The physics of Channel Qi: jing-luo, bosuns, and waves.
1 hrs - 3 hrs
Discussion of the mechanics of feeling Channel Qi as pertains to Stomach and Ren channels and recorded demo of moving the palm of the hand back and forth along the traditionally described path of the Stomach channel; recorded Q&A with instructor, and observe recordings of students practicing on other students in relation to detecting Qi or what was experienced.
3 hrs - 5 hrs
Common diversions of the Stomach channel and Sympathetic mode divergences at ST-13 and Ren-12; discussion of sympathetic mode changes and how they are detected with recorded demo of how to feel Channel Qi by moving hand back and forth and noticing differences; Discussion of how to NOT influence the patient’s Channel Qi while working at detection.
5 hrs - 6 hrs
Observe recordings of student volunteers and a discussion of case studies involving Stomach Channel aberrations.
6 hrs - 7 hrs
Review of main concepts covered in recording so far and recorded demo/review on feeling channel Qi in the Stomach channel, with renewed emphasis on not influencing the patient’s Channel Qi.
7 hrs - 8 hrs
Sleep-and Dissociation-mode divergences of the Stomach channel; Discussion and demo on inducing dissociation mode changes in each other and detecting the Channel Qi changes and recognizing sympathetic- and dissociation- mode patterns in patients — case studies.
8 hrs - 9 hrs
Treatment considerations: Needling blocked channels, energetic work on the patient’s part for unblocking channels, and herbs for blocked channels.
9 hrs - 10 hrs
Channel blockages formed by scar tissue and unresolved injuries: Channel Qi following the path of least resistance; Directional assessment of Channel Qi; Needle-direction theory for redirecting Channel Qi.

11 hrs - 12 hrs
Case studies and observe recorded students practicing, with instructor's commentary on points to consider: Needling on students with scar tissue — feeling the students’ aberrant Channel Qi prior to needling; practice feeling the changes that occur in the Channel Qi after needling; Patients’ assessment of changes that occurred in response to the needling. Recorded Q&A.

Dr. Janice Walton-Hadlock is a passionate teacher and a pleasure to learn from. Her teaching opens us to another level of knowledge in oriental medicine that brings a new potential to one's practice.
Christine O. - Canada
Dr. Walton-Hadlock makes good, skeptic-proof explanations of why meridian theory makes sense, and why feeling the qi, in the meridians, and not just the pulses, will guide us in making more directed treatments that can be more effective.
Tobi P. - Canada
I loved this course. I was skeptical at first as to how we can learn to feel channel qi through an online course. The instructor explained it in a very accessible way that could be easily applied even though we weren't physically in the class. She also inspired a lot of confidence by continuously stating that we all had the ability to do it, and we just needed to develop it.
Salma A. - Canada
Dr. Janice Walton-Hadlock has made discoveries that are yet to be fully appreciated and recognized in the fields of both oriental medicine and medicine of the west. Diversion of channels is so fundamental to the development of the disease.
Natalia K. - United States
Janice continues to rock my world and change how I perceive and approach treatments. All therapists could benefit from her approaches and knowledge. I can't wait until she brings a new course!
