Helping the body heal itself: applications of Qi gong and Chinese medicine

First of all, I want to introduce the idea of the body as a collection of harmonized systems of meridians. I have an interactive exercise to share that we will use to explore some techniques that demonstrate how these systems operate. Then I want to spend some time talking about our definitions of disease based upon our clinical understanding. I will introduce the diagnosis by Eight Principles and will explain specific methods used to make specific changes to these systems which will restore harmony and balance to them and therefore health to the body. Some of the methods will include Qi Gong, Acupuncture, Electro-stimulation, Cupping and Guasha.
