When we work with classical formulas, it is often easy to get into the right ballpark with our patients’ patterns. We may recognize that a Cháihú formula, a Guìzhī formula, or a Dāngguī formula is needed—and we may even feel confident that the exact formula matches the presentation. Yet there are nuances that can fine-tune a prescription so that it works in a sometimes miraculous way, like a key turning smoothly in a lock.

In this two-day course, Sharon Weizenbaum will guide you through the Six Conformations, teaching you how to clearly identify which of them needs to be restored to proper function. From there, we will learn the key signs and symptoms that allow us to refine and sharpen a diagnosis. For instance, we may recognize a Cháihú pattern—but when do we add or subtract Bànxià? Both Zhīzǐ Chǐ Tāng and Zhīzǐ Gānjiāng Tāng can be invaluable additions to formulas for insomnia, but which types of formulas do they best complement, and how do we differentiate between them? What questions must we ask our patients to make this distinction? What do we look for in the pulse or abdomen?

These subtleties often make all the difference in a patient’s response to treatment. The skills explored in this class draw from Sharon’s 40+ years of clinical experience, study, and refinement.

Throughout the weekend, students will have the opportunity to calibrate their abdominal and tongue diagnostic skills and ask questions. In addition to lectures, we will conduct several live patient intakes to deepen your understanding and integrate the material in real time.
