Home Study CE Course

Description: This course provides an introduction or review of basic Chinese medical theory, including the Vital Substances (Qi, Blood, Shen, Essence), the Four Examinations, and the Causes of Illness. This course will be of most interest to practitioners of Asian bodywork therapy, including shiatsu, acupressure, and tuina. The Vital Substances are the most basic functional components that we work with when using bodywork, herbs, acupuncture, Chinese dietary therapy, and other interventions. Understanding the functions and disharmonies of the Vital Substances will assist therapists with their assessment and treatment planning. The Four Examinations provide a framework for organizing complex information and observations about the client. The section on causes of illness reviews the many ways in which lifestyle choices regarding nutrition, exercise, and stress management contribute to health status.
