In Person Classes
February 14-16, 2025: London, UK
Advanced Clinical Skills
Course Description
Each day of the clinical skills classes is dedicated to one of the complement channels. We begin the day with questions and answers about clinical approaches and cases. Then we have a brief discussion of the channel system of the day, whether it be sinews, luos, divergents or extraordinary vessels, and point out effective treatment strategies for that system. Before lunch, there is a demonstration of pulse reading and explanation and then a treatment and needling demonstration.
After lunch, we split up into groups and practice techniques associated with that channel system, point location and needling, pulse reading and full treatments. I will be available to provide supervision and feedback as desired.
Because of the practical nature of the course, participation is limited to 12 students. These classes are the clinical and practical arm of the online mentorship so anyone studying the complement channels is strongly encouraged to get hands-on experience with the techniques and point locations.

The Treatment of Trauma with Classical Chinese Medicine
+ Clinical Skills Day
Course Description
Trauma affects all of the channel system because it is such an affront to our humanity. This course will look at how and where different forms of trauma (physical, emotional, etc) land in the body, how our innate healing systems protect us from overwhelming trauma, and how we can begin to unravel and come to terms with our history. We will look at principles of trauma-informed care and discuss the ethics and considerations important to its treatment. This will all be from the perspective of classical chinese medicine:
How the different channel systems react and engage in response to traumatic events
How to identify the channel systems where trauma resides
How to respectfully leak residual trauma from the channel system and reclaim one’s spirit
We’ll have a day of related clinical skills practice on Monday.
