Course Overview
This one-hour recorded lecture illuminates pulse interpretation from early classic delineation to modern pulse masters. This single pulse position is used to explore the wealth of practitioner's own capacities. Words and pictures can all be expanded to provide an explanation of the feeling of the layered qualities of the pulse beat. A song of the soul, a person's pulse weaves in information about the Divergent channels process, the Luo vessels, the Sinew Channels, the Ying/Blood/nourishing qi, the protective Wei qi, the deep Yuan qi and extra channels, signals of the day of ovulation, and an unborn baby's gender.
Objective
  • To familiarize the practitioner with various evolutions in classic pulse diagnostic interpretation.
  • To explain the various levels in the pulse, and the distinct information at each level.
  • To emphasize the strength of each Chinese Medicine practitioner’s individual interpretation of what information they feel.

    About Holly Guzman

    In 1972, age 13, Holly studied acupuncture with help from the Chinese Embassy in Afghanistan where she lived. There, she was given a booklet on curing deaf mutes. A few years later, Holly traveled to the Guang Zhou School for the Deaf Mute in China to see the successful acupuncture protocol in action. She also witnessed acupuncture anesthesia in major surgery, and national health care programs utilizing Chinese herbs. In 1979, Holly attended NESA, and a year later assisted Ted Kaptchuk to open an acupuncture program at a state hospital, a first in 1980. In 1983, Holly joined the first graduating class of ACTCM. Concurrently, she assisted Miriam Lee, (who treated 10 patients an hour, 8 hours a day) and studied with Yat Ki Lai, expert on herbal safety, from Lai’s lineage treating royalty. Lois Johnson M.D., an oncologist, is Holly’s mentor for advanced western herb studies, and Daoist Jeffrey Yuen inspires her applications of Chinese spiritual aspects in health. She has been greatly influenced by Kiiko Matsumoto, known for unsurpassed acupuncture results, with whom Holly continues studies www.KiikoMatsumoto.com.
