Fundamental Principles of Chinese Medicine for Acutonics Students

This class is designed to help Acutonics students without Chinese Medicine training expand their understanding of the energetic perspective of Chinese medicine as it relates to the nature and flow of energy in the body and the organs and substances of the body. Other topics covered include: Yin/Yang organ relationships, curious organs, Five Shen, Three Treasures and causes of disease according to Chinese Medicine theory.=

The class also provides insights into the Taoist view of Qi and the functions of the organs to increase understanding and inform choices and treatment strategies.

This course is required for all new students without Chinese Medicine training and is meant to be taken prior to Points & Meridians. We encourage students to take Acutonics I & II prior to these two courses, to understand at a deeper level how Chinese medicine informs our full curriculum.
