APA Welcomes Back Kiiko Matumoto for our Summer Seminar
Kiiko Matsumoto, L. Ac.
"Ancient Chinese Perspectives on Shinbo Kan"
Description: What role does the Liver play in the maintenance of good health and in many of the most common chief complaints seen in the clinical setting? What are the signs and symptoms of the pathological state known as Shinbo Kan? In the fourth of her continuing series of seminars on root treatment strategies based upon 39 years of study and research into the true meaning of the Ancient Characters found in the Su Wen, the Ling Shu, and other classical acupuncture and Taoist texts, Ms. Matsumoto will discuss the importance of the proper assessment of Shinbo Kan, Fatty Liver, and will demonstrate correct assessment techniques and treatment strategies designed to achieve the most effective and long-lasting results.
Special Applications of Xin Shu, Heart Shu (Bl 15), and its relationship to Bao Mai will be a part of whole body treatment demonstrations and discussions this weekend. Stomach Qi as the "ignition" for the circulation of the Twelve Meridians will also be presented.
