SUMMARY:Extraordinary Chinese Medicine Lecture and Book Launch with Thomas Richardson
DESCRIPTION:2 CPD Points \n$10 – this can be used towards his book on the night \nIn this lecture\, Thomas will discuss a theoretical model that examines a possible connection between the extraordinary vessels\, the extraordinary organs\, and Daoist conceptions of the evolution of consciousness using the lens of the ying qi cycle/horary clock. The model demonstrates how the extraordinary vessels and extraordinary organs may be paired in a one-to-one correspondence\, much as the primary channels and zangfu are paired with each other \nYou can also preorder his book here \nIf you are planning to go to his lecture you can use the lecture fee as credit towards his book on the day.

SUMMARY:Treating Implantation Failure with the Wisdom of the Wen Bing
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\nWhat is Immune Infertility?\nThis is an extremely controversial topic in IVF clinics\, with many IVF doctors having differing views on the concept of autoimmunity causing infertility. Unfortunately\, this medial distrust in autoimmunity being the reason for many women’s infertility has led to many women undergoing sometimes up to 20 failed IVF treatments that could have otherwise been prevented. \nAccording to Dr. Alan E. Beer\, who established the Chicago Medical School’s Reproductive Immunological Clinic in 1987\, “as much as 40% of unexplained infertility may be the result of immune problems\, as are as many as 80% of unexplained pregnancy losses.” \nWhat will be discussed?\nSally will be discussing the role of natural killer cells: how they activate the immune system\, thus damaging the placenta and causing miscarriage\, and damaging the embryo and causing implantation failure. She will also go through a detailed analysis of pathology results\, how they can be interpreted\, and how this relates to TCM diagnosis and treatment. \nAfter years of consulting numerous women with autoimmune and killer cell dysfunction\, Sally noticed similarities in their symptomatology from a TCM perspective. She also found many similarities with Wen Bing theory\, and so began devising treatment strategies based on the Wen Being theory of venting latent pathogens to lower inflammation. \nSally has had numerous clients with killer cell dysfunction undergo a 3-month course of treatment with Chinese herbal medicine and mushroom therapy continue on to display normal pathology and easily conceive and experience a successful\, drug-free pregnancy. \nShe will present many of her clients’ cases including their pathology tests and TCM treatment plans. \nDetails & Tickets\n\nDate: September 9th\, 9:30am – 5:30pm\nIncludes morning & afternoon tea\nIncludes printed notes in colour\n6 CPD points\nStudent: $195*\nPractitioner (association member): $275*\nPractitioner (no association memberships): $325*\n\n*Cancellations: Registrations cancelled up to 1-week prior to seminar will be refunded less 20%. We regret that refunds are not otherwise possible. \nAbout Sally\nSally has held a long time interest in Wen Bing theory\, infertility and more recently autoimmune disease. This interest has culminated in the last few years into a practice largely focused on failed implantation and miscarriage due to compromised immunity. Read her full bio here. \n \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Neuropuncture MELBOURNE WORKSHOP - Michael Corradino
DESCRIPTION:Neuropuncture is a ground-breaking Acupuncture system that unifies the modern understandings of neuroscience with the traditional practice of Acupuncture. \nIt is an evidence-based system which utilises and manipulates the body’s neurophysiological pathways and can be used in the treatment of pain conditions\, orthopaedic conditions\, and internal medicine. Neuropuncture is an extremely effective approach to modulating the nervous system. From targeting specific receptors for the release of specific neurohormones\, in resetting dysfunctional visceral autonomic reflexes\, to depolarizing excited overstimulated nerve roots for pain management. It combines the research of electrical acupuncture’s effects on specific neural receptors\, while maintaining the holistic traditional TCM model. \nAt this 3-Day hands-on workshop\, practitioners will learn the concepts\, protocols and applications of Neuropuncture as developed and taught by Dr. Michael Corradino.

SUMMARY:Neuropuncture SYDNEY WORKSHOP - Michael Corradino
DESCRIPTION:Neuropuncture is a ground-breaking Acupuncture system that unifies the modern understandings of neuroscience with the traditional practice of Acupuncture. \nIt is an evidence-based system which utilises and manipulates the body’s neurophysiological pathways and can be used in the treatment of pain conditions\, orthopaedic conditions\, and internal medicine. Neuropuncture is an extremely effective approach to modulating the nervous system. From targeting specific receptors for the release of specific neurohormones\, in resetting dysfunctional visceral autonomic reflexes\, to depolarizing excited overstimulated nerve roots for pain management. It combines the research of electrical acupuncture’s effects on specific neural receptors\, while maintaining the holistic traditional TCM model. \nAt this 3-Day hands-on workshop\, practitioners will learn the concepts\, protocols and applications of Neuropuncture as developed and taught by Dr. Michael Corradino. Michael will introduce his revolutionary model by firstly explaining the mechanics of how acupuncture works within a neurophysiological framework. By understanding how acupuncture works within this framework\, practitioners can then learn how to target and manipulate different neuropathways for specific therapeutic actions.

SUMMARY:Nurturing Life by Venerating the Root: Classical Chinese Medicine and its Contemporary Applications in Reproductive Care MELBOURNE - Sabine Wilms and Debra Betts
DESCRIPTION:This 3 day seminar with Dr. Sabine Wilms and Dr. Debra Betts is a fantastic opportunity to learn from leading experts in their respective fields of Classical Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture in Reproductive Care. \nSabine and Debra have been working on this project for many years and we are excited to host this long awaited seminar with this amazing renowned duo. \nDay 1: Nurturing Life: Classical Chinese Medicine and Yangsheng in Reproduction\nThis day will be an introduction to the world of classical Chinese medicine\, especially as it applies to fertility and reproductive medicine. Sabine will encourage participants to rethink the practice of Chinese Medicine to go beyond treating the disease\, with the ultimate goal of harmonising Heaven and Earth. She will focus on the yangsheng (nurturing life) and expand on Sun Simiao’s advice to “venerate the root” by starting with the health of women and newborns\, and explore how this notion of “nurturing life” can be applied concretely in the context of reproductive medicine\, especially in the preparation for pregnancy. \nDay 2: Nurturing the Fetus: The Ten Months of Pregnancy from Early China to Today\nTogether\, Sabine and Debra will explore the physiology of pregnancy\, development of the fetus\, detailed and specific information on nurturing the fetus and the mother for each of the ten months of pregnancy from the perspectives of state-of-the-art bio-medicine and classical Chinese medicine. They will discuss specific treatment protocols for each month of pregnancy with the least invasive tools possible\, including diet\, behavioral changes\, and acupuncture and moxibustion (and a brief excursion into medicinal formulas). \nDay 3: Classical and Contemporary Insights into Birth\, Postpartum Care\, Neonatal Development and the Ethics of Reproduction\nThe final day will explore birth\, postpartum care and the ethics of treating in pregnancy. Sabine and Debra will discuss the physiology of birth and the postpartum period and specific needs of the mother. And also the importance of teaching pregnant and postpartum patients about self-care and empowering them in the process to assume a more active role in their own healthcare. They will also cover the ethical considerations in pregnancy from a historical perspective through to today’s practice for practitioners in Australia. \n19.5 CPD Points \nFor more information\, please see the flyer here

SUMMARY:Neoclassical Pulse Diagnosis: Extraordinary Vessels & The Six Channels - Thomas Richardson
DESCRIPTION:Neoclassical Pulse Diagnosis is a powerful system of pulse diagnosis that is deeply rooted in the classics (especially the Mai Jing). \nThis system has also been called an ‘acupuncturist’s pulse diagnosis’\, as it can accurately diagnose channel imbalances.  Once proficient in this system\, the pulse can guide one immediately to a specific acupuncture point that will not only bring balance to the pulse\, but also instantly shift the patient’s experience – whether by decreasing pain\, increasing range of motion\, changing their internal state of consciousness\, or bringing about other noticeable shifts. \nPractitioners can spend a lifetime dedicated to the craft of pulse diagnosis. This workshop will teach you an easy to learn system that leads to a much more precise diagnosis with instant clinical results. \nNeoclassical Pulse Diagnosis is based on an understanding of complementary positions and spacial correlations of the individual pulse positions. It allows one to diagnosis channel involvements (Extraordinary Vessels\, 6-channel) as well as various temporal cycles (ying qi and wei qi cycles) and five-element imbalances. \nThis method was developed by Dr. William Morris and it is a systematic integration of classical anatomical approach to pulse taking along with channel-based methods of assessment. It is a system that is heavily influenced by the Ding Family system of pulse diagnosis. \n13 CPD Points
