<p><strong>Cost:</strong><br />
$295<br />
Early Bird (before September 23rd): $250<br />
Student/Faculty Rate: $200</p>
<p><strong>To register:</strong><br />
Fax <a href="../wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Registration-Form-L-Jarrett-Seminar.pdf">Registration Form</a> to 602-274-1895 or email to <a href="mailto:jlindsey@pihma.edu">jlindsey@pihma.edu</a><br />
<em>For further information contact Jonathan Lindsey at 602-274-1885 or email <a href="mailto:jlindsey@pihma.edu">jlindsey@pihma.edu</a>.</em></p>
<p><strong>This course will:</strong><br />
• Enlarge the perspective of the practice of Chinese Medicine as a Science of Integrity.<br />
• Instruct in the art of Constitutional Diagnosis and its role in Chinese Medicine.<br />
• Give evolutionary perspectives on medical diagnosis and treatment including Holistic and Integral Medicine.<br />
• Reveal and explain the Inner Functions of the Acupuncture Points.<br />
• Offer practical exercises in constitutional diagnosis, using Five Element principles as well as other acupuncture approaches.</p>
<p>Chinese Medicine can be practiced in the 21st century in such a way as to balance the impact of the great challenges we face today and create an integral understanding and treatment of human health.</p>
<p>In this two day seminar we will explore the most significant imbalances of our time and how Chinese Medicine can, when practiced in the largest possible developmental context, alleviate suffering and re-connect the individual to their original nature.</p>
<p>Constitutional diagnosis will be examined as an organizing framework that yields deep insights into each patient’s treatment and healing.</p>
<p>In the ancient text of the Shen Nong Ben Cao, China’s oldest herbal text, it is stated:</p>
<p>• The highest level physician helps the patient fulfill their destiny.<br />
• The mid-level physician treats constitution and helps the patient nourish their original nature.<br />
• The lowest level physician treats symptoms only.</p>
<p><em>Join us while we learn from a master how to serve our patients as ancient healers.</em></p>
