Pulse diagnosis: theory & practice + a day of live channels
with Ann Cecil-Sterman
april 7th, 8th, & 9th 2024 | artisan traders | greenville, sc
The first two days will be a hands on journey through the intricate art of pulse diagnosis. There is a focus on the rare skill of directionality. Modern practitioners often make diagnoses from "static pulse" findings: without moving fingers. However, at the peak of its sophistication in the Han Dynasty, fine and complex movements of the fingers elicited key information about communication or blockages between organs.
This enhances diagnosis and prevents misdiagnosis, eg: in a case of chronic bronchitis, one might treat the Lungs since their lung pulse is weak, but if the Spleen is not first ascending Qi to the Lungs, that treatment will fail. Participants will learn to see these interactions and will walk away with the foundation to further develop their skill set. Ann has taught this class to hundreds of people on three continents, many of whom consider it a game changer.
On the third day, we will learn from Ann as she treats live patients using the Complement Channels.
