Event Details
This workshop has the capacity to be a true "game changer" for every practitioner of Oriental Medicine regardless of style.
Ikeda sensei will assist participants to truly understand and use what they feel in the pulse. He will be focusing on the clinical relevance of the Ancient Chinese Medical Texts by exploring pulse diagnosis as a central theme of this workshop. Ikeda sensei will be sharing from the accumulated wisdom of his 50 year journey in the clinical practice of Traditional Acupuncture, Moxibustion and Herbal medicine.
The foundation of oriental physiology (the healthy state) will be illuminated by an expanded understanding of the "normal" states of the pulse. Participants will learn what the different pulse patterns actually represent internally increasing our ability to make an accurate diagnosis by feeling the pathology, symptoms and syndromes.
Ikeda sensei presents a unified theory that encompasses a wide healing spectrum. The seemingly disparate strands of activity presented by TCM, Meridian Therapy, ToyoHari, Five Elements and herbal practices are all drawn together and understood as part of one unified body which Ikeda sensei has labeled TJM ("Traditional Japanese Medicine").
Practitioners of any style will benefit from this fundamental understanding to enrich, develop and inspire their current practice.
