Classical Acupuncture According the Six Confirmations in the Shanghan Lun

Classical Acupuncture According the Six Confirmations in the Shanghan Lun.

The Treatise on Cold Damage or Shanghan Lun is one of the most respected texts in the history of Chinese medicine and a practitioner of the classical format of Chinese medicine will closely adhere to this original text when treating patients. This methodology is characteristic for the medical classicist and stems from reverence for the ancient writing as well as a search for purism. The six confirmations grid along which the Shanghan Lun is outlined, lends itself remarkably as a clinical guide for acupuncture and moxibustion treatment. The six channels or confirmations are the physical representations of the six climate influences or six qi in nature. In the body they form the six pairs of hand and foot channels directly linked to these six qi. The goal of this course is to provide a framework for acupuncture and moxibustion therapy based on Shanghan Lun rationale of the six confirmations. Although specific point prescriptions will be discussed, the intention is primarily to reveal a methodology for point selection that can be applied to any Shanghan Lun-based herbal therapy. Upon completion, the participant will have mastered a methodology to translate or extrapolate classical herbal formulas into acupuncture and moxibustion prescription, thus allowing for greater consistency in clinic as well as increased effectiveness.
