Course Overview
¨All proper needling first treats the spirit“ (Su Wen, ch. 25)
The profound art of acupuncture healing hinges on the capacity to facilitate transformation at the Shen level. From an acupuncture standpoint, this entails delving into the spiritual realm and aiding patients in converting suffering into personal growth, which forms the heart of one’s practice. In this light, unraveling the enigmatic connection between Shen and the mind stands as the essence of human development.
The names and positions of acupuncture points are intricately linked to the profound interplay of Heaven and Earth, Jing and Shen, a dynamic deeply reflected in numerous acupuncture points.
In this course, you will explore special needle techniques, gain a profound understanding of acupuncture points, and learn how to apply them effectively in clinical practice. Additionally, you’ll discover valuable insights into treating Shen disorders, including insomnia, poor memory, heart pain, palpitations, depressive disorders, and even epilepsy.
Out of the main 361 points, we examine 8 points with the character Shen, Spirit, in their name: He 7, Cv 15, Bl 44, Du 24, Du 11, Kid 25, Kid 23, Gb 13.
