Series Overview

The work of a truly wholistic practitioner is to address the needs of patients at all levels. The majority of patients, aside from their physical symptoms, are often also imbalanced at the levels of mind and Spirit. Every acupuncture point has a name, translated from the ancient Chinese characters, which suggests the mental and Spiritual connotations of the point. This knowledge is essential to reach the mental and Spiritual needs of patients.

The series, consisting of in-depth explanations by Professor Neil R. Gumenick, will begin with how to resolve a Spirit level block, and will cover the names, meanings, and uses of selected Spirit points that can be conjoined with treatment of any element. These include points on the Ren (CV) and Du (GV) channels, upper Kidney chest and outer Urinary Bladder points on the back. Subsequent sessions will include essential Spirit points on all 5 Elements and 12 meriidans.

Session 2 will cover the Fire Element and points on Heart, Small Intestine, Pericardium, and SanJiao.

Course Overview

The work of a truly wholistic practitioner is to address the needs of patients at all levels. The majority of patients, aside from their physical symptoms, are often also imbalanced at the levels of mind and Spirit. Every acupuncture point has a name, translated from the ancient Chinese characters, which suggests the mental and Spiritual connotations of the point. This knowledge is essential to reach the mental and Spiritual needs of patients. This course is an in-depth exploration into the Wood element and its Officials (organs) with Professor Neil R. Gumenick. It begins with an explanation of the critical skills of practitioner/patient rapport, how to achieve it, and how it can lead us to the real and deepest needs of the patient, particularly at the levels and mind and Spirit. Neil will cover the real meanings of "no judgment", compassion, and the significance of symptoms in a truly holistic context. The session continues with descriptions of the Wood element as a whole, the diagnostics, functions of the two Wood Officials, particularly as they manifest at the mental and Spirit levels, and in-depth descriptions of the names, Spirits, meanings, and uses of selected points on each meridian: Gall Bladder and Liver.
