Meridian Balance Treatment for Pain

Robert Laguna, MSOM, LAc.

Meridian balancing is an extremely effective approach to the treatment of pain and many other syndromes that can be put to use in your practice IMMEDIATELY!

The principle objective of this course is to provide an introduction to balancing the acupuncture meridians through acupuncture or acupressure in order to treat many of the patients seen by practitioners today. The meridian balance approach utilizes 5 treatment approaches based on the Chinese bagua. This particular methodology is very effective in the treatment of pain, respiratory, endocrine, and reproductive problems, just to name a few. We will also discuss the effective herbal formulas used in support of the meridian balance treatments.

Women’s Emotions and Blood Deficiency

Moldy To Healthy—Recognizing CIRS

Marlene Merritt, DOM, MS Nutrition, CNS, IFMCP 

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, fibromyalgia -  do you have complex patients who have seen 15 practitioners and who don’t get better… it’s now being seen that the root of these issues is a biotoxin illness. Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome encompasses multiple biotoxin vectors, and we will be discussing the one responsible for more than 80% of CIRS patients — water-damaged buildings and the immune response and dysregulation that can occur when exposed to mold and fungal fragments. This course will cover the screening process that you as a practitioner can do to determine if a patient has CIRS, and what tests should be ordered to confirm a diagnosis. We will also discuss specifics about what to look for in a house if mold is suspected, and how to accurately test a house for mold. Learning to recognize CIRS will transform your practice, and make you a hero to your patients who have been desperate to find an answer.
