Chinese Medicine : Diagnosis

A 12-hour course

Zen Shiatsu grows out of the ancient intellectual traditions of Chinese Medicine, and the practice of acupuncture and herbalism.

In our 96-hour Chinese Medicine curriculum, we do an in-depth study of these traditions, to understand the place of Zen Shiatsu within the greater context of Chinese Medicine and learn to communicate fluently with other professionals in the field.

The study of Chinese Medicine is also very applicable to Zen Shiatsu practice. The instructor, Lok Kwan Cheng, is a Shiatsu practitioner and a practitioner of acupuncture and Chinese herbology, and has devised a curriculum that best serves the needs of Shiatsu practice.

Chinese Medicine IV: Diagnosis introduces the four methods of diagnosis in Chinese Medicine, and reinforces how to differentiate patterns of imbalance.

Topics Include:

•  Pulse/Tongue Diagnosis
•  Visual Diagnosis
•  Questioning for Pattern Differentiation

This class is open only to students enrolled in our complete Shiatsu Certification Program.
