Overview
In this webinar, Professor Gumenick will present the components of a Classical Five-Element Acupuncture initial interview. Attendees will learn about the specific areas of inquiry that constitute a medical history, personal history, and systems review. Attendees will learn the skills of looking and questioning deeper than surface responses to glean the diagnostic information as to the underlying elemental imbalance (AKA Causative Factor), which is the key to Classical Five-Element treatment.
Learning Objectives
- Attendees will learn to reach and evaluate the state of a patient’s mental and spiritual levels.
- Attendees will learn how to question at a deeper level than simply obtaining information, and how to use questioning to elicit the elemental Causative Factor, or root cause of the patient’s imbalance.
- Attendees will learn to listen with the whole of themselves – to more than just data, but to the needs of the patient who has the symptoms.

Overview
In ancient Chinese medicine, the pictograph for sex is ‘Boiling Water.’ This implies that sexuality involves the element of Water, which symbolizes the desire for procreation, the element of Wood, for sexual drive and performance, the element of Fire for sexual excitement, and for orgasm. The Earth element contributes affection and sexual bonding, and the Metal element contributes fantasy and self-knowledge about sexual desires. In this 6-hour recorded workshop, participants will learn how to read the signs of sexuality that are apparent in Chinese Facial Diagnosis within the Five-Element framework. Diagnostically, the problems with sexual desire, sexual dysfunction, and signs of hormonal fluctuations will be discussed, in relation to facial features. Treatment plans will be advised physiologically and psycho-emotionally and from the perspective of ancient Daoist alchemy, presented in a practical and updated way. The webinar will include fertility, conception, pregnancy issues, and reproductive organ health signs as they show on the face.

Channel Theory Basics and a Case Study

* You can normally get a discount when you buy a series whole!
Overview
The course provides an introduction to some of the electromagnetic properties of fascia, and why western researchers are now suspecting that electrical flow in fascia corresponds with the “mysterious meridians of Chinese medicine.” This course covers: Conversion from one type of channel Qi to another, and the locations of these conversions; how channel Qi creates organs, and not the other way around; how we can learn to feel the differences between one channel and another; how different types of channel Qi might be responsible for the development of the various sensory brain cells; The importance of always bearing in mind the sequence of the channel Qi flow when diagnosing a health problem. The case study demonstrates using channel theory to track down the very unexpected, multiple, channel blockages causing the patient to have thirty years of chronic migraines, weakness on one side of her body, and why her knee, ankle, neck, and 6th rib on her right side were always “popping out of place.” None of the traditional Pattern diagnoses helped her condition - tongue and pulse showed weakness, but didn’t help show what the problem actually was; this course will illuminate the processes used to solve the issue.
Learning Objectives
- The student will learn about cryptic aphorisms, mistranslations, and various error accumulations that have spanned over centuries.
- Depth will be added to an English-speaking practitioner's understanding of the vocabulary and phraseology of Chinese Medicine.
- The student will have a better understanding of the implications of Channel Theory from an electromagnetic, 21st-century perspective.

Overview
People have traits which individualize them. These traits manifest in their talents, predispositions, and strengths. Chinese Face Reading helps recognize these tendencies, and how they are reflected in facial features. This can help to find the right person for the job, or the right job for the person. Recognizing such signs such as of one who: needs to be in charge, is a good cooperative follower, doesn't listen to others well, is a strongly practical person, is a strong intellectual, makes an ideal receptionist, or is a cautious investor, can all be helpful in our integrative working lives. This course also addresses the different five element qualities in work, and how to appreciate someone who works in a wood way, or in a metal way, and thus, enhance this value.
Learning Objectives
- To use the wisdom of five element balancing to enhance how people work together

- To teach how to apply 5 element theory to understanding a person’s physical appearance and how that reflects his/her personality traits

Overview
This audio/visual course by master acupuncturist Kiiko Matsumoto presents a detailed approach to common, severe digestive problems. It includes a presentation of the 9 Star system, which is a foundational part of Chinese Medical thought. In Chinese Medical theory, the 5 Elements/10 Stems are considered related to the heavenly level. The 12 branches, 12 meridians, 12 yearly cycles are considered related to earthly level. The middle level between these is the 9 stars, the human level, between heaven and earth. Each section of the nine star map relates to one of the five elements, and 3 of the 9 star areas relate to Earth. This class discusses these positions of the earth element on the abdomen, the direct relationship to the small intestine, and many digestive disorders that reflect on the abdomen (hara) with this exact pattern of pressure pain. Theory and didactic information is given on how to approach digestive disorders that may clearly have the diagonal 9 Star pattern of earth/small intestine pressure pain on the abdomen (hara), A base treatment of left SI 3, right Bl 62 is worked up, with multiple variations. Emotional and physical trauma accompany many painful digestive conditions, and is addressed using acupuncture points over related brain pain/memory areas.
Learning Objectives
- Provide didactic information on the application of the 9 stars to many digestive disorders, including Celiac, Crohn's, GB disorders, Colitis, Reflux, and chronic Stomach pain, using variations on the base treatment.
- Teach practitioners to differentiate between the usage of acupuncture point choices as they are applied to specific incidents, and include trauma release points as appropriate.
- Educate practitioners in Classical Chinese theory of the 9 Stars.
