TCM Seminars

Shenzhou Open University of TCM frequently organizes TCM and Western Medicine seminars. With our program for this season, we hope to offer you a good choice.

Upper limbs Musculoskeletal Pain – Mazzanti AcuOsteo method® – physiopathology and treatment by Acupuncture and Osteopathy

Upper limbs Musculoskeletal Pain – Mazzanti AcuOsteo method® – physiopathology and treatment by Acupuncture and Osteopathy

Musculoskeletal pain is one of the most frequent reasons for consultation in my own clinic. In my experience, Acupuncture and Osteopathic medicine are two effective techniques and they are synergistic in treating pain. Often pain is generically reported to a widespread area of a joint, together with some rigidity and it can be difficult to identify the Acupuncture Channel involved in a musculoskeletal pain. Osteopathic manipulative treatment’s aim is to bring back joints in their physiological position, reduce pain and limitation of the movement, and help to identify the channel that needs to be treated with Acupuncture.

Menopause is a natural part of aging for women, marked by varying experiences and symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, sleep disturbances, low mood, anxiety, weight gain, reduced sex drive, and cognitive challenges. These symptoms are caused by hormonal fluctuations and can significantly affect quality of life. The lecture will explore menopause from both Western medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspectives, detailing clinical symptoms and signs, current management approaches like Menopausal Hormonal Therapy (MHT) and TCM, and strategies for improving quality of life, including lifestyle adjustments.

Wrist-Ankle Acupuncture (WAA)

Wrist-Ankle Acupuncture (WAA)

Wrist-Ankle Acupuncture (WAA) is an acupuncture technique invented in 1975 by Professor Zhang Xinshu. WAA involves the stimulation of 12 acupuncture points located in the wrist and ankle through the insertion of subcutaneous needles that are left in place and crusted over. It is a completely painless technique and is widely used in clinical practice, particularly for musculoskeletal disorders, but also for internal medicine in combination with somatic acupuncture. During the seminar, the main applications of this method will be illustrated, and a lot of attention and space will be given to the practical part and the methodology of needle insertion.
