Take the next step and complete the circle, from Shāng Hán Lùn pulse diagnosis to Jīn Guì Yào Lüè pulse diagnosis
In this course, Nadine will cover:
Diagnosis and treatment according to the Classical Chinese Medicine guidelines of Jīn Guì Yào Lüè, the classic “Prescriptions of the Golden Cabinet”.
According to Nadine’s understanding, the Shāng Hán Lùn describes diagnosing and treating illnesses contracted from the outside. It traces the pathology’s path of transmutation and transmission, both natural and due to mistreatment. The Jīn Guì Yào Lüè completes the text with the treatment of complex or miscellaneous illnesses. Though some of these illnesses are also contracted from the outside, they have moved into chronic pathological states. Others are caused by internal mental-emotional factors or “uncommon” causes such as animal bites, traumas, vaccines, etc.
Together, these two texts are called the Shāng Hán Zá Bìng Lùn. They contain all possible diseases. As with the Shāng Hán Lùn, the Jīn Guì Yào Lüè recipes are based on one of the oldest works of Chinese Medicine, the Huáng Dì Nèi Jīng, often referred to as the “Yellow Emperor’s Book of Internal Medicine”.
In this course, Nadine will decode the Jīn Guì Yào Lüè to understand classical physiology and the diagnosis and treatment of the illnesses described. Diagnosis and treatment with classical recipes are discussed, emphasizing the underlying pulse diagnostics and the matching formulas. Students will learn the pulses associated with the formulas according to Nadine’s experience, as well as the reasons why these pulses, signs, and symptoms arise.
Students will be able to apply the information in the course right away in the clinic. However, the importance of calibrating what you are feeling on your fingers with Nadine’s cannot be more strongly stressed. Therefore, we are organizing our second pulse retreat for summer 2024 (dates to be announced soon!) The pulse retreat is the practical aspect of this pulse training.
The In-Person retreat will be held in Amhert, MA at the White Pine Healing Arts Clinic.
After taking this course, you will be prepared to:
- Distinguish and diagnose complex pathological conditions of all kinds.
- Apply Classical Chinese recipes according to Jingui Yaoue based on the corresponding pathology.
- Diagnose and treat complex conditions of all kinds in your clinical practice according to Classical Chinese Medicine guidelines of the Jingui Yaolue.
