ACUPUNCTURE TREATMENT FOR THE FIVE OPENINGS

Acupuncture treatment for disorders of the five orifices:
– the eyes, nose, tongue, ears, and mouth

Delve into the world of TCM and its unique approach to health, where the interconnectedness of the body’s systems is crucial. Our course focuses on “Wu Guan” or “The Five Openings”—the eyes, nose, tongue (throat), ears, and mouth—and their crucial role in TCM. Understanding the relationship between these openings and the body’s internal organs—especially the five Zang organs—is key to understanding the origin and development of disorders in these areas.

Explore the fascinating connections between orifices and organs:

• Eyes and Liver: Learn how TCM links eye problems such as blurred vision or dry eyes to imbalances in the liver, and how these can be indicators of deeper liver problems.
• Nose and Lungs: Discover the connection between nasal health and the lungs, and how to maintain Lung Qi for optimal nasal well-being.
• Tongue (Throat) and Heart: Learn how throat discomfort and speech problems can be traced back to the Heart according to TCM philosophy.
• Ears and Kidneys: Understand the connection between ear conditions and the kidneys, especially in older adults.
• Mouth (including the Tongue and Teeth) and Spleen/Stomach: Discover how oral problems can indicate imbalances in the Spleen and Stomach, and the role of the tongue in diagnosing digestive disorders.

• Comprehensive Physiology and Pathology: A thorough review of the functions of the five orifices and potential problems.
• Point Selection: Learn to select the most effective acupuncture points, drawn from various styles and the experience of masters, including Master Tung’s acupuncture and scalp acupuncture.
• Treatment Protocols: Gain practical knowledge for treating common conditions such as allergic rhinitis, tinnitus, dry eyes, and sore throat.
• Case Studies and Research: Deepen your understanding with real-world case studies and the latest research.
