Guest guest Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 To all who are interested, Friendly reminder, your last chance to sign up for this awesome Master Tung seminar! It will be taught this year, and may not be next year. Esther is going to teach about Master Tung points and more importanly how and why they are effective and work through the understanding of the tai chi merdians, which is an important principle in all of chinese medicine. Cheers! Peter *Understanding Master Tong's Acupuncture Points in Depth: the Principle of Taiji Meridians*** * * *Lectured in English by Esther C. Su, M. A. * *A long term apprentice of Miriam Lee and student of Young Wei-chieh* * *This two weekend course examines the fundamental principles of Master Tong's points and, by encouraging hands-on participation from students, demonstrates the applicability of those points in effective acupuncture. The lecturer's extensive background and experience in the field of Chinese medicine will lend to an in-depth understanding of both the theories and practices of acupuncture. *The first two days* of the course will focus on commonly used points in clinical practice: their locations, applications, and clinical effects. Also the theory on how and why these points are effective will be discussed through the understanding of the *Taiji* meridians, which is an important and fundamental principle that underlies all of Chinese medicine. *The following weekend's *course will relate Master Tong's points with traditional (TCM) acupuncture points and other practical systems that are used today and how to integrate these into your practice. This in-depth look gives practitioners a deeper understanding of the Master Tong style and classical Chinese medicine as a whole. This course will be limited to a group of 15 participants, to ensure a pleasant learning environment. *Time:* Oct. 21, 22 and 28, 29, 2006. 9 AM-12 PM; 2 PM-5 PM.
