I Felt it in My Fingers First – Part 2 (Kimberly was a BAD Student) 5/5 (41)

Now let’s talk about measuring the channels. When measuring the source points for an AcuGraph exam, many practitioners get stuck in the mode of measuring according to the “Textbook” location.

What is TCM…Really? 5/5 (41)

I was talking with some friends recently and one of them said he read there are many different types of oriental medicine. He was confused as to the difference and wondered which method is the most effective. So let me ask YOU – How many different types of Traditional Chinese Medicine are there? Are you a TCM practitioner? Is your specialty Herbs, 5 Element, Meridian Balancing? This conversation reminded me of Dr. Jake Fratkin and his... Read more

I Felt it in My Fingers First – Part 1 (Entry Exit Points) 4.98/5 (46)

As many of you know, I was a massage therapist for about a dozen years before I became an acupuncturist. While I was in college to learn TCM, I was blessed with the opportunity to transform my massage clients into road maps of discovery.

Have you Noticed these 5 Trends in Acupuncture? 5/5 (44)

Sometimes I need to see the bigger picture. I’m reminded of the story of the logger who is so busy working in the forest, harvesting and hauling trees, that he never takes time to stop and consider the forest itself. So from time to time, I like to take a step back from my day-to-day work and consider the acupuncture profession in general. I’ve worked in and around the profession for the last 14 years, which doesn’t... Read more
