In this 1.5 day workshop, Jake Fratkin will look at four important areas

where this combined approach is beneficial: Adrenal Fatigue, Insulin

Resistance, Hypothyroid, and Liver Toxicity. Adrenal fatigue can be the

underlying cause of many disorders, including fatigue, hormone imbalance,

blood sugar regulation, neurotransmitter deficiency, and the negative

effects of aging. In Chinese medicine, kidney and jing disorders are most

often the differentiated syndromes. Insulin resistance, now reaching

epidemic proportions in Western societies, is due to chronic over-

consumption of carbohydrates and sugars, and is the main cause of obesity,

heart disease, and chronic inflammation.

 

Hypothyroid, usually secondary to adrenal fatigue, can be monitored with

blood tests, and responds well to Chinese herbal intervention. Finally, the

physiology of liver detoxification will be explained, with recommendations

for effective liver regulation using Chinese herbal formulas. In this

workshop, we will discuss Western physiological mechanisms, OM energetic

physiology, OM herbal applications, and nutritional therapies with

rationale. Throughout, we will demonstrate the use of lab tests (blood,

stool and saliva) and therapeutics within the context of real case

histories.
